Hao Wei
I am a PhD student at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), advised by Prof. Nils Thuerey in the Physics-based Simulation group. I am passionate about building AI algorithms that respect physical laws, particularly for simulating, modeling, and reconstructing complex physical systems efficiently and accurately.
My research focuses on integrating physical laws, structural priors and differentiable solvers into machine learning models to construct more robust, reliable and long-term stable rollout learning algorithms
Previously, I received my master's degree from Zhejiang University, and interned at Microsoft Research Asia and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
