About Me

Zeyuan Zang臧泽元

B.Eng. Student @ BUPT  •  Incoming Ph.D. @ ZGCA

I am a 4th-year undergraduate student majoring in Computer Science and Technology at the School of Future, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), currently conducting research on Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) at the Center of Intelligence Science and Technology (CIST), advised by Prof. Xiaojie Wang. I will soon begin my Ph.D. through a joint program between BUPT and the Zhongguancun Academy (ZGCA), advised by Prof. Wentao Zhang.

My current research interests include:

  • Boosting reasoning abilities of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs)
  • Vision-Language representation learning
  • Novel architectures inspired by cognitive heuristics
  • Improving LVLMs' reliability with high-quality data

Outside the lab, I am a classical music enthusiast and enjoy tennis and golf.
