VGI-Bench: Probing Visual Intelligence in Video Generation Models
Main Contributor · Visual reasoning benchmark
- Co-developed a benchmark with 27 tasks and 810 instances across four task domains and seven capability dimensions.
- Implemented and analyzed large-scale evaluations of state-of-the-art image and video generation models across task domains, capabilities, and difficulty levels.
- Analyzed thousands of generated outputs to study failure modes, input sensitivity, synthetic fine-tuning transfer, and denoising dynamics; found self-correction in less than 1% of decoded transitions.

Web Navigation Agent Research Project
Reinforcement learning and long-horizon LLM agents
- Developed reinforcement-learning-based web agents across 800+ WebArena tasks, designing dense reward functions for multi-step interaction and task completion.
- Implemented agent memory mechanisms to preserve task-relevant context over extended trajectories and improve long-horizon decision making.
- Fine-tuned 8B-parameter LLMs using PyTorch and supervised fine-tuning on multi-GPU distributed infrastructure, with context lengths up to approximately 16K tokens.

Projects
FinTrack Financial Tracking Platform
Full-stack financial platform
- Built a full-stack platform with React, Node.js, Express, and MySQL, supporting transaction management, budgeting, and real-time multi-currency conversion through external APIs.
- Designed a normalized relational database with transactions, triggers, stored procedures, and transactional workflows; deployed the application stack on Google Cloud Platform.

Experience
Frontend Developer Intern
visibilityx.ai
- Built a Vue 3 and TypeScript single-page application with 10+ dashboard views and reusable UI components, reducing duplicated frontend code by approximately 25%.
- Developed interactive analytics dashboards with ECharts and SQL-backed REST APIs, reducing average dashboard load time by approximately 30% through optimized asynchronous fetching and state management.
- Added Jest and Vitest unit tests for core frontend modules, increasing test coverage to approximately 80%.

Backend Developer Intern
HiABR Lab
- Implemented a distributed URL-shortening service with FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and Redis, reducing redirect latency by approximately 60% and database reads by approximately 70% through caching.
- Built REST APIs with sliding-window rate limiting, idempotency keys, and input validation, supporting approximately 1,000+ requests per minute while preventing duplicate operations and abusive traffic.
- Integrated Prometheus monitoring and containerized services with Docker, reducing deployment setup time by approximately 50% and providing visibility into latency, traffic, and error rates.
