About Me

Hi, I'm Tianyang Shi (石天阳). I got my B.S. and M.S. degree from BUAA in 2016 and 2019. I previously worked at the NetEase Fuxi AI Lab (2019 - 2021) and now I'm working at the Tencent AI Lab (2021 - ). My research interests focus on computer vision applications in remote sensing, artistic creation and video games. (Google Scholar Profile)

I'm currently an AI researcher and working on the problem of game character auto-creation, where we aim to generate game characters based on user-uploaded facial photos. I'm very honer to present the first solution in this topic (Face-to-Parameter paper), and this technique has been widely used in many popular computer games (including Justice Online, Heaven mobile, Naraka:Bladepoint, etc.).
