Hao-Yu (Max) Hsu
I am a 2nd year M.S. (thesis) student in Computer Science at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, advised by Prof. Shenlong Wang.
I am honored to receive Siebel Scholars Award, Class of 2025.
My research interests lie in 3D vision, neural rendering, and multimodal learning.
My long-term goal is to develop AR/VR tools that model and reconsturct our physical world, and make realistic simulations accessible to everyone.
Previously, I was fortunate to have been advised by Prof. Yu-Chiang Frank Wang and
Prof. Shao-Hua Sun at National Taiwan University.
I received my Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from National Tsing Hua University in 2021 the highest distinction (summa cum laude).
I am applying for 2025 Fall Ph.D. positions and actively seeking for research-oriented internships for 2025 Summer.
Please feel free to reach out if you believe I am a good candidate.
