About Me

I am Runze Wang (王润泽), a master’s student in Data Science at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). I am a member of the Graphics and Geometric Computing Laboratory (GCL), advised by Prof. Ligang Liu. I began working with the group as an undergraduate in 2022 and formally joined it as a graduate student in September 2024.

My research focuses on 3D intelligence, spanning 3D representation, reconstruction, and generation, with the goal of building systems that can understand and create coherent worlds.
