Haozheng Yu

Hi, thanks for visiting my website! I am a PhD student at Cornell University, working with Prof. Bharath Hariharan. I am also a research intern at Adobe Research. I am interested in building AI systems that can understand, reconstruct and synthesize the dynamic 3D world from casual videos.

Previously, I was a Machine Learning Engineer at Irreverent Labs. I spent a wonderful year at the Media Lab, Tencent America. I completed my M.S. in Computer Science at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Hyun Soo Park. Prior to that, I received my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Technology from Central China Normal University.

Pro bono office hour

Inspired by Prof. Kyunghyun Cho and Prof. Wei-Chiu Ma, I commit 30 minutes to 1 hour per week to meet with undergraduates, early-career graduate students, or whoever is in need about research, career development, potential research opportunities, or graduate student life. Please feel free to reach out via email if you would like to chat :)

Publications
SMG: Semantic Motion Graph for Monocular Dynamic Gaussian Splatting
Haozheng Yu, Xinyu Yang, Rundong Luo, Jennifer J. Sun, Bharath Hariharan
ECCV, 2026
Paper / Project

We introduce Semantic Motion Graph (SMG), which models Gaussians‘ motion as semantic motion, allowing reliable, semantically coherent nodes to guide uncertain motion for robust monocular dynamic Gaussian splatting.

Live Interactive Training for Video Segmentation
Xinyu Yang, Haozheng Yu, Yihong Sun, Bharath Hariharan, Jennifer J. Sun
CVPR, 2026
Paper / Project

We introduce Live Interactive Training (LIT), a novel framework for prompt-based visual systems where models learn online from human corrections at inference time.

WildFin WildFin: An In-the-Wild Video Dataset for Fish Behavioral Recognition
Abigail Grassick, Jerome Tze-Hou Hsu, Ethan Lin, Ziang Liu, Max Whitton, Madelyn Hair, Liam Gutierrez, Haozheng Yu, Kristin Branson, Vivek Jayaraman, Michael A. Gil, Andrew M. Hein, Jennifer J. Sun
ECCV Marine Vision Workshop, 2026   (Oral Presentation)
Paper / Project / Code / Dataset

We introduce WildFin, an in-the-wild video dataset and benchmark for recognizing fish behavior in complex marine environments.

3DSP PanelNet: Understanding 360 Indoor Environment via Panel Representation
Haozheng Yu, Lu He, Bing Jian, Weiwei Feng, Shan Liu
CVPR, 2023
pdf / video / poster

We introduce the panel representation of panoramas to solve the indoor 360 understanding tasks.

3DSP Dense Keypoints via Multiview Supervision
Zhixuan Yu, Haozheng Yu, Long Sha, Sujoy Ganguly, Hyun Soo Park
NeurIPS, 2021   (Spotlight Presentation)
pdf / video / poster

We present a probabilistic epipolar constraint to learn a dense keypoint detector from unlabeled multiview images.

Projects
3DSP Monkey Segmentation and Multiview Reconstruction
Haozheng Yu
2021

I designed a bootstrapping strategy to fine-tune a Mask-RCNN on monkey data with only sparse keypoint annotations. I implemented a voxel-based visual hull reconstruction to generate 3D monkey mesh from multiview segmentation results.
