Liu He

I am an applied scientist at Amazon Ring AI, working on enhancing MLLMs in-the-wild. I received my CS PhD at Purdue University, under Professor Daniel Aliaga. My research integrates cutting-edge techniques to solve interdisciplinary problems across CV/CG.

My passion is to well embed the physical world. Now my research focusing on synthetic data generation, advancing MLLM reasoning on visual tasks, and physcial-aware VideoGen as World Model.

I am open to collaborations and internships. Please feel free to contact me if we have common interest.

I am the Cover Man on 2025 Indiana State Fishing Guide, see my face in any IN retail outdoor stores :-)
