ZhiJun MA

I am a Ph.D student in Computational Media and Arts at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou), supervised by Prof. Kang ZHANG.

Prior to this, I obtained B.Eng degree in Landscape Architecture at Southeast University and M.Phil degree in Computational Media and Arts at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou).

My current research focuses on Human-Centered Spatial Intelligence for Complex Physical Tasks. I explore how mixed-initiative interactions, robust spatial tracking, and adaptive computational geometry can support expert-led fabrication on dynamically changing physical materials. Grounding my work in the real-world context of cultural heritage (e.g., Duan inkstone crafting), I focus on developing interactive spatial systems that tightly couple human cognitive decision-making with dynamic 3D perception and human-machine collaborative processing.
