I am Yunfan Lu, a final-year Ph.D. student at HKUST (gz), supervised by Prof. Hui Xiong, and collaborating closely with Prof. Yusheng Wang at the University of Tokyo. My research centers on event-based vision and computational imaging, with a focus on challenges, e.g., HDR, low-light enhancement, deblurring, frame interpolation, rolling shutter correction, and super-resolution. My long-term objective is to develop imaging systems for robots that emulate the agility of biological vision by designing an integrated approach that includes optical structures, sensor technology, and advanced imaging algorithms.

I earned my master’s degree from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences under the supervision of Prof. Jun Xiao, where I received the China National Scholarship (top 0.8%). I was also a visiting student at INRIA, Paris. During my bachelor’s at NUST, I was awarded a Silver Medal in the ACM/ICPC Asia Regional Contest. In industry, I gained experience at DJI under Dr. Menglong Zhu and at HONOR, working with Dr. Ye Gao, focusing on computational photography for mobile devices. My passion for imaging technology has driven my work across both academia and industry.

As I enter my final Ph.D. year in 2025, I seek visiting student opportunities and plan to pursue a postdoc in 2026.
