Research Engineer, Huawei Hong Kong Research Center

Pak Shek Kok, Hong Kong SAR, China

Short Bio

Yuzhi received the Ph.D. degree from Department of Electronic Engineering, City University of Hong Kong in February 2023. He received the B.Eng. degree from School of Electronic and Information Engineering (Qiming College), Huazhong University of Science and Technology in June 2018. Yuzhi’s research interests mainly include low-level computer vision (e.g., image and video processing) and generative models (e.g., GAN and diffusion model). Recently, he focuses on applications of Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM).

He has interned at AI Imaging Group, SenseTime, working on computational photography research and projects, and Lightspeed and Quantum Studios, Tencent IEG, working on AIGC projects (e.g., stable diffusion). He is now as a research engineer at Huawei Hong Kong Research Center, working on MLLM projects.
