Baiqiao Yin「尹柏乔」

Hi there! I'm Baiqiao Yin. Now I'm a research intern at Northwestern University, very fortunate to work with Manling Li. Previously, I got my B.Eng. in Intelligent Science and Technology from Sun Yat-sen University, where I worked closely with Xiaodan Liang.
In the near future, I'll go to New York University to serve as a research assistant in my gap year, working closely with Chen Feng.
⭐I am open for discussions and looking for PhD opportunities (26 Fall). If you think there is anything interesting we can discuss, feel free to email me!

📝Researches

💬My research interests lie in spatial intelligence. Currently, my focus is on designing spatial intelligence agents with the following capabilities:

1. Spatial perception: MLLMs or Large spatial model?
2. Active spatial interaction mechanisms, encompassing environment manipulation and viewpoint optimization
3. Dynamic spatio-temporal understanding for predictive spatial modeling

Key Takeaway: Guiding VLMs to first generate cognitive maps, then reason upon them, is an effective approach to approximate spatial mental modeling with limited views.

Regard skeleton joints as point cloud via incorporating the position information of skeletons into point cloud methods, demonstrating the validity of modeling position relationships with 3D coordinates.

Theatergen can interact with users to consistently generate images over multiple Turns.

Benefits from the graph convolutional network's proficiency in handling graph-structured data and the powerful modeling capabilities of Transformers for global information.
