Profile
I am currently a research fellow in the National Centre for Computer Animation, Bournemouth University. My research interests include interactive graphics and animation, rendering and modeling, virtual reality, virtual surgery simulation, CAD.
I received my bachelor’s (1993) and master’s degree (1996) in Computer Science from Zhejiang University (P. R. China) and my Ph.D.(2000) in Computing Mechanics from Dalian University of Technology (P. R. China). I undertook two years' PostDoc research (2000-2002) in Tsinghua University on Scientific Visualization before spending one year (2001-2002) as a research assistant at the "Virtual Reality, Visualization and Imaging Research Centre" of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. In 2003, I came to the NCCA to continue my work on Computer Animation. I am mainly responsible for the AHRC supported project “Fast Animator Controlled Synthetic Creature Skin Deformations”. My work has mainly focused on developing techniques and software tools for the modeling and animation of deformable human and creature characters.
