Changyong Song | Ph.D. Candidate @ Vanderbilt | Physics-based Animation, Simulation, AI

Hello, Iโ€™m Changyong Song โ€” or just CHAYO, if you prefer.

I dream of exploring and designing diverse virtual worlds that feel as expressive and dynamic as the real one.
Currently, my research spans visual perception, physics-based animation, and AI-driven simulation, with a focus on bridging low-level physical dynamics and high-level perceptual understanding. I work across multiple modalitiesโ€”including video, simulation outputs, and temporal signalsโ€”to build intelligent systems that not only analyze motion, but also generate physically plausible, perceptually meaningful experiences.
