I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science and, by courtesy, of Psychology at Stanford University. Before joining Stanford, I was a Visiting Faculty Researcher at Google Research, working with Noah Snavely. I finished my PhD at MIT, advised by Bill Freeman and Josh Tenenbaum, and my undergraduate degrees at Tsinghua University, working with Zhuowen Tu. ResearchMy group studies physical scene understanding---building machines that see, reason about, and interact with the physical world. Besides learning algorithms, what are the levels of abstraction needed by AI systems in their representations, and where do they come from? Our research aims to answer these fundamental questions, drawing inspiration from nature, i.e., the physical world itself, and from human cognition. Representative projects include Galileo, MarrNet, 4D Roses, the Neuro-Symbolic Concept Learner, and the Scene Language. In addition to developing the representations themselves, we simultaneously explore their applications in various domains:
Here is some information for prospective students and visitors.
Thank you for your interest in joining my group! Due to the large number of emails I receive, I cannot respond to every email individually. Please review the information below before contacting me. Thanks. Current Stanford students and prospective visiting students: please fill out this form. For Stanford MS students and undergraduates, the minimum time commitment is 15 hours per week for six months. For visiting graduate students, the minimum length of a visit is six months. Prospective postdocs: please email me directly with your CV. Prospective graduate students: please apply through the system and list me as a potential advisor in your application. There is no need to contact me, unless you have a particular research question/idea that you would like to discuss further. GroupPostdocs
