Haotong Lin

I am a final-year PhD student in Computer Science at Zhejiang University, advised by Prof. Xiaowei Zhou and Sida Peng (expected to graduate in June 2026). I obtained my bachelor degree in Computer Science from Zhejiang University in 2021. In the summer of 2022, I had the opportunity to engage in a highly enjoyable collaboration with Noah Snavely at Cornell University.

My research focuses on spatial intelligence, with a particular interest in building human-level machine perception systems.

I’m always open to collaborations. Feel free to reach out!
