About

Hi, I am Jianan Xu, a Master's student studying Computer Science at EPFL. My research focuses on 3D digital humans, particularly on human motion generation and human-scene interaction. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) in 2023, where I was fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Luca Pezzarossa. I’m always open to collaboration - feel free to reach out!
