XuDong Frank Wang (王旭东)Hi! I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student in Berkeley AI Research (BAIR) lab at UC Berkeley, advised by Prof. Trevor Darrell. Prior to BAIR, I was a member of International Computer Science Institute (ICSI), advised by Prof. Stella X. Yu. I received my Master's Degree (thesis plan) in Intelligent Systems, Robotics and Control at University of California, San Diego, advised by Prof. Nuno Vasconcelos and Bachelor's Degree as an honorary member of Tang Aoqing Honors Program in Science at Jilin University. I am currently a research intern at Google DeepMind, working with Prof. Cordelia Schmid, Dr. Xingyi Zhou, and Dr. Alireza Fathi. Previously, I was a research scientist intern in the Generative AI Research (GenAI) team at Meta AI from May 2023 to Dec 2023, and before that, in Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) labs at Meta AI from May 2022 to Dec 2022. During my tenure at Meta, I had the privilege of collaborating with Dr. Ishan Misra and Dr. Rohit Girdhar. I also worked closely with Dr. Zhaowei Cai (Amazon AWS AI Labs), Dr. Zhirong Wu (Microsoft Research) and Prof. Ziwei Liu (NTU) from 2019 to 2022. I was a staff researcher at the vision group of ICSI between 2019 and 2020. My research has been primarily focused on: [1] representation learning without reference to human annotations or under minimal human supervision. [2] text-to-image diffusion models. [3] grounded Large Multimodal Models (LMMs). How to pronounce XuDong? It is composed of two syllables: "Xu" and "Dong": /ʃü/-/dɔ:ŋ/Contact: xdwang [at] eecs [dot] berkeley [dot] edu |

Coffee Shop Adventures. During my undergraduate years, I co-founded a coffee shop and lovingly furnished it from scratch with four friends. Owning a coffee shop that enabled me to connect, empathize, and deeply engage with numerous people touched my soul in ways words can hardly describe.As the Chief Editor of the Graduate Program Application Manual (in Chinese), I led a dedicated team of over 20 members, consisting of Chinese students studying in various countries. Our mission was to provide valuable insights and assistance to Chinese students who may not be familiar with the graduate program application process but aspire to explore educational opportunities abroad. Together, we created a comprehensive guide spanning more than 300 pages, available for free online! [Google Drive] Within this manual, we meticulously outlined the crucial steps for a successful application to graduate programs abroad. Moreover, we conducted insightful interviews with over 100 alumni, gathering their invaluable advice on seamlessly transitioning to a new country and charting promising career paths across various academic disciplines. |
