Wenqing Wang

I am Wenqing Wang (王文青), a CS PhD candidate at Khoury College of Computer Sciences, Northeastern University. I am advised by Prof. Yun Raymond Fu and am a member of the SMILE Lab. I earned my B.S. in Computer Science and B.A. in Psychology from the University of California, Davis.

My research interests span computer vision, generative AI, and artificial intelligence. In particular, I focus on generative AI [VLMs/LLMs, multi-modal generation, diffusion models, video and image generation/understanding]; neural rendering [NeRF, Gaussian Splatting, 3D novel-view synthesis]; and artificial intelligence [ML/DL, brain-inspired algorithms, attention mechanisms, autonomous driving]. I am always open to collaboration.

Currently seeking 2025 Fall and 2026 Spring & Summer internship opportunities.
