Hi, I’m Tian Xia, an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan, triple majoring in Honors Math, Honors CS, and DS. I am also a research intern at SafoLab and SLED lab. I am deeply passionate about modeling concepts in mathematical language and examining them from different perspectives. My main excitement lies in machine learning and its applications. Outside of research, I’m an avid gamer, enjoy long walks, and love flying to different cities.
Research
My research interests focus on multimodal learning, 3D intelligence and generative AI, emphasizing scalable systems and cross-modal representations. I aim to develop trustworthy machine learning systems that integrate diverse data modalities, such as vision, language, and 3D spatial information, to advance understanding, reasoning, and generation in the 3D physical world.
Over time, my interests have expanded to encompass a broader range of topics, including computer vision, natural language processing, 3D modeling, and robotics. My current focus areas include:
- 3D Intelligence: Encompassing 3D reconstruction, recognition, and interaction.
- Generative AI: Particularly for generating across diverse modalities.
- Multimodal Representation Learning: Integrating vision, language, and 3D spatial information.
- AI for Mathematics: Exploring mathematical reasoning and representation across modalities, spanning natural language and formal proofs

Side Projects
Transferwiki - Collabator
TransferWiki is a platform created to assist students from mainland China who are planning to transfer to universities abroad, particularly in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. This platform addresses the challenges and information asymmetry faced by students during the transfer process.
