I am Xingjian Ran (ๅ่กๅฅ). I am a Ph.D. student at the Institute of Data Science, The University of Hong Kong (HKU IDS), under the supervision of Prof. Bo Dai. I received my B.Eng. from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). My research focuses on 3D/scene generation and spatial intelligence. I am always open to collaboration. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in working together!
