I am a PhD student at the USTC, Future Media Computing Laboratory, supervised by Prof. Xiaojun Chang and my senior brother Mingfei Han. Before that, I was advised by Prof. Xiangnan He in School of Data Science in USTC. My research interest lies in Vision-language navigation (VLN), 3D Large Language Models (3D-LLMs) and Multimodal-Large-Language-Models(MLLM). I am working hard to become an excellent researcher. If you have any good ideas or cooperation, please don't hesitate to contact me.
I love coding, and I feel really happy when I get lost in it and solve the bugs I come across. In some ways, I might be more suited to being an engineer than a researcher. AI research works often more about having a "good story" than actually "getting a task done." I'm working hard to make sure my work does both: tells a good story and gets the job done. I also used to be into photography and I'm a League of Legends (LOL) mobile player, ranked at the highest level, King. I bought this domain, "abdd.top" in 2022 because I thought it was fun and cool.
