Hello I'm

Yichun Shi

I am currently a research scientist at ByteDance Inc (Tiktok). Prior to this, I was a Ph.D. student in the Biometrics Research Group at Michigan State University, supervised by Dr. Anil K. Jain. I acquired my Bachelor degree from the IEEE class of Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China. My current research interests are in Generative Models and Neural Rendering, including image, video and 3D generation.
