About
I am a Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. My research focuses on vision-language models, spatial reasoning, and embodied AI.
I study how multimodal models ground language in visual evidence, reason across images and 3D environments, and understand egocentric video. My work includes mitigating pixel-grounding hallucinations, multi-image reasoning segmentation, and collaborative reasoning for 3D generation.
