Xinyu Hou

Ph.D. Candidate in MMLab@NTU

I am currently a Ph.D. candidate supervised by Prof. Chen Change Loy at MMLab@NTU, in the College of Computing and Data Science, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. I am broadly interested in computer vision, with a focus on generative AI.

Prior to my Ph.D. study, I received my B.Eng. degree with honors (highest distinction) from the same university in 2020. During my undergraduate study, I had valuable experience conducting research with Prof. Lap-Pui Chau and Dr. Yi Wang on vehicle tracking and crowd counting. I also spent a semester at EPFL, working with Dr. Irene Viola and Dr. Alexiou Evangelos on research project about light field and point cloud acquisition. These experiences collectively contributed to my growth as a researcher and professional.
