Chengyao Wang (王程钥)

I am a PhD student at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), advised by Prof. Jiaya Jia and Prof. Bei Yu . Prior to that, I obtained my B.E. degree in Computer Science from Sun Yat-Sen University (SYSU).

I am particular interested in building Human-like Multimodal Intelligence that can actively interact to the physical world, learning from interaction and have long-term memory. Recently, my research mainly focus on Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs), representative works includes LLaMA-VID, Mini-Gemini and MGM-Omni. Prior to that, I also had some experience on visual perception and representation learning.

I am seeking Research Scientist / Member of Technical Staff opportunities in industry for 2026 Fall on Multimodal Foundation Models and related application (Computer Use Agents, Embodied AI), open to any location. Feel free to contact if you are intersted. Research discussion and collaboration are always welcome, feel free to set up a coffee chat.
