Hongyu Zhou (周鸿宇)

I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. at Zhejiang University, working under the guidance of Prof. Yiyi Liao at the X-Dim Lab. Prior to this, I was a master student at Zhejiang University, where I was fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Deng Cai and Prof. Xiaofei He at the State Key Lab of CAD&CG. I received my bachelor’s degree from Tongji University in 2020.

During my master’s program, I gained hands-on experience working on recommendation and advertising systems at RedNote, Tencent, and Hulu.

Currently, my research is centered on 3D scene reconstruction and generation.
