About me

Hello! My name is Zhiyi Wang, and I am a junior student at ShanghaiTech University. My area of expertise lies in Computer Vision and Computer Graphics. Iā€™m familar with contemporary Deep Learning frameworks such as MLP, CNN, RNN, AE, GAN, NeRF, Diffusion, and LLM related stuff, alongside rendering techniques like rasterization and surface/volume rendering. Currently, I am conducting research at SooLab lab, under the esteemed guidance of Prof. Sibei Yang. You can download my resume here.

Projects

Pixmath | Nov. 2022 ā€” Jan. 2023

A math formula recognizer designed as the final project of Deep Learning (CS280)

  • Aiming to recognize math formulas in images rendered by LaTeX engine back to LaTeX code.
  • Used a CNN-GRU pipeline with attention mechanism.
  • Capable of attaining a 25% accuracy rate and a word error rate (WER) of 25% on the CROHME 2013 test set.
  • Yields credible recognition outcomes for inline cases, although performance may be constrained by limited GPU resources.

Realistic Smoke Rendering | Dec. 2022 ā€” Jan. 2023

A renderer supports both surface and volume rendering designed as the final project of Computer Graphics (CS171)

  • Implemented basic Monte-Carlo Path-Tracing for surface rendering.
  • Implemented sampler with Delta-Tracking and transmittance estimation with Ratio-Tracking, in addition to their integration with surface rendering.
