Making visual intelligence
more trustworthy.

I study how multimodal systems perceive, remember, and reason over visual information — with a focus on building efficient and reliable intelligence for dynamic environments.

01 / About

Building systems that
keep looking.

I am an M.S.–Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Hefei University of Technology. I am currently advised by Prof. Jiequan Cui, and previously worked under the supervision of Prof. Richang Hong. My broader interest is multimodal intelligence that can efficiently perceive changing environments, retain relevant visual evidence, and reason reliably over long horizons.

Rethinking VLMs for Image Forgery Detection and Localization

Shaofeng Guo, Jiequan Cui, Richang Hong · CVPR 2026 Findings

We investigate when semantic priors from vision-language models help — and when they can hurt — forgery detection and localization.

04 / Research interests

Questions I am
exploring.

These are research interests and recent explorations, rather than a list of claimed research specialties. They describe the problems I read, think about, and hope to investigate further.

01
◌

Multimodal reasoning

How can visual evidence be actively revisited, selected, and used during reasoning instead of being a one-time input?

03
◉

Agents & self-distillation

Agentic observation, event-driven memory updates, on-policy self-distillation, and reasoning that remains stable beyond benchmarks.

✦

Multimodal safety

My established publication record is in content safety and image forensics, including robust analysis of generated and manipulated media.

the next question.

I am open to conversations about multimodal intelligence, visual reasoning, content safety, and research collaboration.
