Rundong Luo

I’m a third-year CS PhD student at Cornell University, working with Prof. Wei-Chiu Ma and Prof. Noah Snavely. I am also a research scientist intern at Luma AI. My research interests lie at the intersection of video generative models and 3D computer vision, where I aim to develop generative models capable of creating highly controllable and photorealistic environments.

I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (summa cum laude) from the Turing class, Peking University. I was a research intern at Microsoft Research Asia and an undergraduate visiting researcher (UGVR) at Stanford University. During my journey, I am honored to be advised by Prof. Jiajun Wu, Prof. Jiaying Liu, and Prof. Yisen Wang.

You may find my CV here: Rundong’s Curriculum Vitae. Feel free to reach out to me via email or Wechat if you have any questions or just want to chat!
