About

Hi! I'm Yu-Hsuan Li, an undergraduate student majoring in Computer Science at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU).

Currently, I am a SWE Intern at TSMC, and a research assistant at the Computational Photography Lab, proudly advised by Prof. Yu-Lun Liu.

My research interests lie in Computer Vision (Video/3D/4D).

Experience

Internship
Oct 2026 – Present
TSMC
Software Engineering Intern
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) · AI4BI
Internship
June 2026 – Sep 2026
Google
Software Engineering Intern
Google Taiwan (Banqiao Office) · Pixel Core Infrastructure
Worked on test infrastructure and observability for Android/Pixel kernel regression triage:
  • Automated test-configuration generation for an internal regression root-cause isolation service across Android/Pixel kernel builds, cutting triage MTTR from 1–3 days to under 2 hours.
  • Closed the remediation loop with an event-driven architecture (Cloud Pub/Sub, config propagation polling) to autonomously resume culprit bisection, reducing manual toil from ~1 hour to a 1-click approval.
  • Engineered a scheduled SQL data pipeline and operational dashboard aggregating issue-tracker logs into key metrics (regression volume, bisection accuracy) and surfacing blocked issues at a glance so engineers can rapidly unblock stuck regressions.
Internship
Sep 2025 – June 2026
TSMC
Software Engineering Intern
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) · AI4BI
Built full-stack internal tools and data pipelines to optimize manufacturing and monitoring workflows:
  • Designed and implemented full-stack web applications utilizing React and AG Grid for robust data visualization.
  • Developed efficient backend APIs using FastAPI and optimized data processing pipelines to handle large-scale data.
  • Automated web scraping and data ingestion workflows using scheduled cron jobs for reliable database storage.

OuroWorld: Bringing Any 3D World Alive as Diverse, Endlessly Looping 3D Cinemagraphs

You-Zhe Xie, Ting-Wei Chou, Yu-Hsuan Li, Kaipeng Zhang, Zhixiang Wang†, Yu-Lun Liu†

†Corresponding authors

3D world models generate worlds that are frozen in time. OuroWorld brings them alive, endlessly. No masks, no seams: any static 3DGS scene becomes a 3D cinemagraph whose motion loops by construction, from any viewpoint.

YoCausal: How Far is Video Generation from World Model? A Causality Perspective

You-Zhe Xie*, Yu-Hsuan Li*, Jie-Ying Lee, Kaipeng Zhang, Yu-Lun Liu†, Zhixiang Wang†

*Equal contribution  †Corresponding authors

The first benchmark evaluating causal understanding in video generation models. Our benchmark can incorporate any real-world video at zero cost, making it arbitrarily extensible to easily assess video generation models' understanding of diverse types of causality.

Designing Fun: LLM-based Game Level Generation

Designing Fun: LLM-based Game Level Generation

Jun 2026
Python LLM RL (SFT + GRPO) MiniGrid
  • RL final project — trained an LLM to generate engaging MiniGrid levels via agent gameplay feedback
  • Decomposed "fun" into three gameplay-grounded rewards: regret (skill discrimination), interaction richness, and diversity
  • Two-stage pipeline (SFT on 11 maze algorithms → multi-reward GRPO); outperforms vanilla and SFT baselines across all metrics

Clash Royale × Chiikawa — Real-Time CG Scene

Jan 2026
OpenGL C++ GLSL Shaders
  • NYCU Intro to Computer Graphics final — an interactive Clash Royale arena where Usagi rockets Chiikawa's tower (OpenGL 3.3 / GLFW / GLM)
  • Built all geometry-shader particle effects: a rocket flame trail and a thermal explosion that expand points into camera-facing billboards with age-based color ramps and procedural circular glow
  • Authored the motion animation: parabolic rocket flight, vertex-shader Mega Knight walk cycle, Chiikawa's hit/death spin, and the rotating golden victory crown
