Yitong Deng 邓宜桐
I am a second-year Ph.D. student in CS at Stanford advised by Prof. Ron Fedkiw. My research interest lies in computer graphics, computational physics, and machine learning.
I strive to design numerical methods grounded in physical and mathematical principles to faithfully and efficiently simulate the motion of real-world objects.
Before joining Stanford, I received my M.S. from Dartmouth College, where I was very fortunate to work with Prof. Bo Zhu.
I received my B.A. summa cum laude from Colby College.
