Yujia Zhang （张宇嘉）

Hi, I'm Yujia, a second-year PhD student at The University of Hong Kong, where I work on 3D understanding and representation learning. I am advised by Hengshuang Zhao and Yizhou Yu.

Previously, I received my bachelor's degree (2020-2024) from Zhejiang University in Automation and Chu Kochen Honors College.
