Projects

AIMS - Big Data Testing System with Focus on Face Recognition

  • Project Description: Conducted large-scale data testing for AI products (such as facial recognition algorithms), enabling users to simulate real-world usage scenarios.
  • December 2020 – October 2021
  • Responsibilities: Researched NIST’s FRVT (Face Recognition Vendor Test) and other similar algorithm competitions, including methods for gathering user algorithms, test types (1:1, 1:n), and how to present test results. Based on findings, performed requirements analysis and created prototypes using Axure.
  • Children’s Book on Forbidden City Architecture

    Interaction Design and Development
  • Geometric Gestures: Interactive Patterns - Abstracted patterns from the Forbidden City into geometric shapes and designed gesture-based interactions using Google MediaPipe; performing the gestures triggers animations introducing the patterns.
  • October 2023 – August 2024
  • Searching for Patterns in the Forbidden City - Based on above one, this project is connected to the Stable Diffusion web UI, using ControlNet’s Canny edge detection to transform user photos into line drawings, merging them with pattern images to generate new visuals.
  • Explore the Forbidden City - Developed a mini-program where users explore a hand-drawn map of the Forbidden City. Moving a circular lens reveals detailed color sections and triggers exploration tasks on specific buildings.
