Yanzhe Lyu

I'm a first-year PhD student in Computer Science at Stanford University, currently rotating with Prof. Jiajun Wu. Previously, I was an undergraduate student in the School of the Gifted Young at the University of Science and Technology of China, where I was advised by Prof. Xuejin Chen. In summer 2025, I visited Stanford through the UGVR program, working with Profs. Jiajun Wu and Shangzhe Wu.

My research interests broadly lie in generative AI and intelligent systems, particularly in developing AI systems that can understand, generate, reason about, and interact with the physical world. I am especially interested in 3D/4D vision, embodied intelligence, and agentic systems.

Research

tl;dr: We generate long-horizon 3D animations from text using coding agents that plan scenes, verify 3D storyboards, and author motion between key poses.

tl;dr: We propose a framework that generates motion for multi-object scenes conditioned on a text prompt, modeling both object deformation and inter-object interactions.

tl;dr: We identify a key limitation in 3D-GS densification and introduce a new densification strategy together with a coarse-to-fine training pipeline.
