😀 Me
Now I’m a Lecturer (equivalent to Assistant Professor) at Macao Polytechnic University. I received the Ph.D. degree in Intelligent Design from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Kowloon, Hong Kong in 2023. My research interests include AI for design and graphics, 3D digital human body/head modeling, AI-driven product design, and AI-assisted interactive design.
I am looking for strongly-motivated PhD candidates to join us. More Phd application information can be found in school enrollment homepage.
