About Me

I am a PhD researcher at Technical University of Munich(TUM), specializing in 3D vision for scene understanding, reconstruction, and object pose estimation/tracking, enabling models to generalize to novel scenes through multi-modal training, test-time adaptation, and efficient training or fine-tuning of foundation models, with applications in AR/VR, robotics, and autonomous driving. I am currently working with Prof. Nassir Navab, PD Dr. Slobodan Ilic and Prof. Benjamin Busam. I also work closely with Dr.Peter KT Yu, founder of XYZ Robotics.
