Yaowei @ UCLA

Yaowei Guo | 郭曜玮

I am currently a Computer Science Major Ph.D. candidate at the UCLA AIVC Lab, co-advised by Prof. Chenfanfu Jiang and Prof. Demetri Terzopoulos. I received both my M.S. and B.S. degrees in Computer Science from UCLA.

I am also fortunate to work with Prof. Yong Liu @ZJU APRIL Lab.

My current research interests focus on 3D computer vision, generative modeling, and embodied AI. Previously, I worked on 2D computer vision problems and their applications in industry.

[News] I am actively seeking internship opportunities for Summer 2026. If you believe my background may be a good fit, please feel free to reach out.

Miscellaneous

I enjoy reading history. I believe that “by learning from history, we can understand the rise and fall of nations.” In my spare time, I like playing tennis.
