About Me

I am a 3rd year PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of California, Irvine, advised by Prof. Shuang Zhao. I received my B.Eng. in Computer Science from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2022, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Pedro V. Sander, as well as working remotely with Prof. Tzu-Mao Li.

My research interests are in the areas of computer graphics, specifically in the field of physically-based rendering and differentiable rendering. The goal of my research is to improve the efficiency and robustness of rendering/differentiable rendering, and explore new applications of differentiable rendering. My past research experiences include developing a path-space warped-area reparameterization method for differentiable path tracing, and a Langevin Monte Carlo method for sampling discontinuities in differentiable rendering.
