About Me
I am a PhD candidate at Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT), currently also a visiting PhD student at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). My research focuses on Crowd Simulation, Virtual Reality, and Human-Computer Interaction.
I have a strong passion for building interactive virtual systems using Unreal Engine and Unity. A highlight of my work: in 2022, I developed a choreography and simulation system that supported the Opening Ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Currently, I am particularly interested in intelligent multi-agent and crowd simulation systems driven by Reinforcement Learning and Large Language Models (LLMs), with the goal of creating simulations that are both technically rigorous and meaningfully impactful in the real world.
