Junhao Song,

I am currently a postgraduate student in Applied Computational Science and Engineering at Imperial College London. I received my BSc (Hons) in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) from Heriot-Watt University in 2023. I am immensely grateful to Dr. Wei Pang and Prof. Ron Petrick for their invaluable guidance and support throughout my undergraduate studies.

My research interests encompass multimodal learning and computational intelligence, with a focus on self-supervised learning in visual computing and the optimisation of model inference through evolutionary computation. I am also exploring the application of diffusion models in video generation and self-supervised learning with large language models, with a particular focus on integrating autoregressive models and multimodal data to enhance the coherence and quality of audio-visual content.
