Making visual worlds
move, create, and evolve.

I research generative visual intelligence — from high-quality image and video synthesis to efficient, long-horizon streaming generation.

I’m a Ph.D. candidate in Computing at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, supervised by Prof. Lei Zhang.

My work connects visual quality, generation efficiency, and temporal consistency. I’m particularly interested in bringing video generation closer to real-time interaction, while preserving the ability to create coherent content over long horizons.

Supported by the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme (HKPFS).
QUALITY × EFFICIENCY × CONTINUITY
I.

Video generation & editing

Unified visual models that generate, understand, and edit images and video.

II.

Efficient generative models

Diffusion and flow-model post-training, few-step distillation, and faster visual synthesis.

III.

Long-horizon streaming

Temporal memory and real-time synthesis for continuous, interactive visual experiences.
