I am a final-year Ph.D. student at University of Technology Sydney, advised by Prof. Xiaojun Chang. I also work closely with Heng Wang, Linjie Yang, and Xiaojie Jin on various video-language projects at Bytedance.
Before moving to UTS, I spent a wonderful two years in Monash University. Prior to my candidature, I was a visiting student at MMLab, SIAT, Chinese Academy of Sciences, where I was fortunate to work with Prof. Yu Qiao, and Prof. Yali Wang.
I received my Master's degree from University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS) and my Bachelor's degree from Nankai University (NKU) with graduate honours.
Recent Activities
- ππ I am currently on the job market for a research position. ππ
- πPaperπ RoomTour3D: Automatic, scalable and cheap! Diverse and Scalable video-instruction data for embodied navigation (VLN). Ongoing effort with current 200k instructions released. We achieve SOTA on SOON and REVERIE with this newly introduced data.
- New! MALMM: Extendable and Effective multi-agent framework for robotics manipulation.
- Shot2Story-134K: Manual 43K + GPTV 90K. 134K multishot videos covering over 548k video shots; Detailed text summaries with over 6M words! We have released this new video description dataset. With the assistance of LLM, our method achieves SOTA performance on zero-shot MSRVTT-QA.
- ECCV 2024 Oral LongVLM: Efficient long-video frame encoding for large video language models.
- CVPR 2024 PMV-400: Portrait-mode videos rock the social media! We have developed the first video dataset dedicated to the research of this emerging video format.
Research interest
My research interests lie in computer vision and machine learning. Currently, I am focusing on large vision-language models and their application in robotics. I worked on video-language downstream tasks related to object and event prediction in videos, like Referring-VOS and video grounding. Previously, I worked on individual and group activity recognition, and video object detection with full and limited supervision. During my Master's thesis, I worked on moving object detection and tracking.
