Myself :D

Jian-Kai Zhu

I'm a Research Assistant in Institute of Information Science, Academia Sinica, working under the guidance of Dr. Jen-Chun Lin. I received my M.S. degree at National Taiwan University under the supervision of Prof. Yung-Yu Chuang.

I'm looking for Ph.D. and industrial opportunities. My research interests cover:

  • Motion synthesis and understanding
  • Computer Vision
  • Robotics
  • Computer Graphics
  • Machine Learning
And I'm open to any topic that align my research interests.

Aside from that, my personal webpage contains my ongoing side projects, including Cel-shading testbed (Requires time and good GPU to load resources) and blog pages to record my side project experiences. Notice that the figures in the Cel-shading testbed is static. For this side project, my goal is to develop a robust motion generation framework to animate the figures in the project using multi-modal conditions including text, sound, video, environmental geometry. It would be interesting if they interact with human naturally and accordingly.
