Bio

Hi! I'm Chih-Hao Lin (林志皓), a third year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at UIUC, where I'm advised by Prof. Shenlong Wang. I have the privilege of collaborating closely with Prof. Wei-Chiu Ma, Prof. Jia-Bin Huang, and Prof. David Forsyth. Before joining UIUC, I earned my Bachelor's and Master's degree from National Taiwan University, and was advised by Prof. Yu-Chiang Frank Wang. My research interests lie at the intersection of 3D vision, neural rendering, and simulation. My long-term goal is to develop digital tools that empower individuals to tell their own stories in innovative and efficient ways.
