I am Yongqing Liang, a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Texas A&M University (TAMU), where I am advised by Prof. Xin Li and co-advised by Prof. Wenping Wang. I am also a member of Aggie Graphics Group. I earned my master's degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Louisiana State University (LSU), under the guidance of Prof. Xin Li. I completed my undegraduate study in Computer Science and Technology at Fudan University, advised by Prof. Jin Cheng. I have gained valuable industry experience as a Research Intern at NVIDIA (Applied Deep Learning Research, Summer 2022) and as a Machine Learning Software Engineering Intern at Google (Advanced Video Preprocessing Team, YouTube, Summer 2021).

My research focuses on Visual Data Understanding and Intelligence, intersecting the fields of computer vision, computer graphics, and machine learning.

I am actively seeking a full-time position in Postdoc, TTAP or Research Scientist starting in Fall 2025. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any opportunities.
