Hi there! I’m Jiahui Liu 👋
Junior at Central South University (CSU) Aspiring AI Researcher I am dedicated to pushing the boundaries of how machines perceive and reason about the world. Driven by a passion for Artificial Intelligence, I aim to bridge the gap between multimodal perception and complex reasoning.
🔍 Research Interests
Previously, under the mentorship of Yishuo Cai, I focused on MLLM Reasoning, with a specific emphasis on “Thinking with Images” — exploring how multimodal models can move beyond simple recognition to deep visual cognition.
🚀 Future Horizons
My current interests lie in developing AI systems that can reason and learn from the visual world. I am particularly excited about:
- 👁️ Vision-Centric Reasoning — multimodal reasoning beyond purely linguistic chains of thought, where visual states, spatial structures, and visual primitives become part of the reasoning process.
- 🎨 Deep Generative Models — understanding how generative models learn, represent, and synthesize complex data distributions.
- 🎬 Video Generation & World Models — exploring video generation as a path toward learning dynamics, causality, and physical knowledge from visual experience.
📫 Let’s Connect!
I’m always open to collaborating on innovative projects or just having a chat about the future of AI. Feel free to reach out!
