Yatian Pang (庞雅天)

Greetings! My name is Yatian Pang. I'm a final-year PhD student at the National University of Singapore supervised by Prof. Tay E. H. Francis and working closely with Prof. Li Yuan from PKU. I'm currently a research intern at Alibaba's Qwen team working with Shuai Bai and Dr. Hang Zhang.

My research interests are multi-modal understanding and generation, as well as unified models. My long-term goal is to develop general-purpose AI systems that seamlessly understand and generate content across diverse modalities.

I’m always happy to chat about my work or my field of study. Feel free to send me an email at yatian_pang@u.nus.edu if you're interested.
