Fu-En Yang

I am a Research Scientist at NVIDIA Research, focusing on Multimodal AI, particularly transfer learning, generative models, multimodal LLMs (MLLMs), MLLM alignment, video modeling, and VLM agents.

I received my Ph.D. from National Taiwan University (NTU) in Jul. 2023, supervised by Prof. Yu-Chiang Frank Wang. Previously, I was a research intern at NVIDIA Research (Feb. 2023-Aug. 2023), focusing on efficient model personalization and vision-language models. Also, I was a Ph.D. program researcher at ASUS AICS from Sep. 2020 to Oct. 2022, specializing in visual transfer learning.

Prior to my Ph.D., I received my Bachelor's degree from Department of Electrical Engineering at National Taiwan University in 2018.
