I am Yongqing Liang, a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Texas A&M University (TAMU), supervised by Prof. Xin Li, co-advised by Prof. Wenping Wang. I'm also a research student in the Aggie Graphic Group. My research interests are computer vision, computer graphics and machine learning.

I obtained my master degree in Electrical Computer & Engineering at Louisiana State University (LSU), advised by Prof. Xin Li. I finished my undegraduate study in Computer Science at Fudan University, advised by Prof. Jin Cheng. I was a Research Intern in NVIDIA (Applied Deep Learning Research (ADLR), 2022 Summer) and a Machine Learning Software Engineering Intern in Google (Advanced Video Preprocessing Team, YouTube, 2021 Summer).

I am looking for a full-time position in academia or industry starting from Fall 2025.
