About Myself
I am currently a fourth-year doctoral student at the Computational Robotics Lab(CRL) at ETH Zürich, advised by Prof. Stelian Coros and Dr. Bernhard Thomaszewski. I obtained my master's degree in Computer Graphics (CGGT) from the University of Pennsylvania under the supervision of Prof. Chenfanfu Jiang. My interests lie in physics-based simulation, PDE constrained optimization, computational design, and machine learning.
All projects during my Ph.D. are open-sourced on my GitHub page. I also maintain a code base, which I call WuKong, a legendary figure in Chinese folklore. You'll find my implementation for a few things that come in handy for simulation in Graphics. I'm updating these repos from time to time.
