Research Experience
-
Sep 2025 - Dec 2025 Remote Research Intern
Visual Computing Group, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA - Advisor: Dr. Fangneng Zhan
- AREA3D Framework Development: Developed an active reconstruction agent that unifies feed-forward geometric confidence with VLM-based semantic guidance to resolve occlusions and ambiguities.
- SOTA Baseline Benchmarking: Reproduced and optimized complex baselines including FisherRF and Air-Embodied.
- 3DGS Experimental Validation: Conducted large-scale 3D Gaussian Splatting experiments on Replica and OmniObject3D datasets, achieving SOTA PSNR/SSIM.
- Active Perception Strategy: Implemented 'Dual-Field' uncertainty fusion using Monte Carlo ray sampling and frustum-based decay.
-
Jul 2025 - Sep 2025 On-Site Research Assistant
ROAR Lab, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN - Advisor: Prof. Mengxue Hou
- Robotics System Engineering: Architected a complete grasping system (YOLO, SAM, GraspNet) within a ROS2 framework to achieve autonomous manipulation on a Kinova Gen3 arm.
- Novel 3D Representation for Grasping: Enhanced 3D Gaussian Splatting by embedding a 'graspness' metric into primitives to guide next-best-view selection.
- Advanced Perception Research: Prototyped models with PointNet++ and Point Transformers to learn continuous Signed Distance Fields (SDFs) from partial point clouds.
