Welcome to my homepage! I am Providence / 洪少观:

I am a first-year Integrated M.Phil - Ph.D Candidate at the School of AI & DS, USTC, advised by Prof. Jingrun Chen, and I also collaborate with associate researcher Congcong Zhu. If everything goes well, I will transfer to the USTC - CityUHK Joint Ph.D Degree Program in Fall 2027, co-advised by Prof. Gerhard Petrus Hancke and Prof. Rynson W. H. Lau at Department of CS, CityUHK. I received my B.Eng degree in CS from Yuan Longping Honors Program at SWU in 2025.

I have published 2 first-author papers at conferences or journals such as AAAI 2026 and IJCNN 2024, and have also published 2 co-author papers, such as in RSS 2026. My research interests focus on Physical Constitutive Representation Learning (Physical Intelligence & Interactive World Model). I am seeking research collaborations, feel free to exchange ideas.
