Shu Pu

I am a first year Ph.D. student of VLAA Lab at University of California, Santa Cruz, advised by Professor Cihang Xie and Yuyin Zhou. Before that, I received my bachelor degree at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in Wuhan, where I had the privilege of working with Professor Yao Wan. I was honored to work with Professor Zhuang Liu as a research intern. I'm interested in representation learning and generative AI, with a particular interest in world models.
