About
Hao Yan is an emerging researcher specializing in 3D computer vision and robotics, with a focused interest in spatiotemporal understanding of dynamic built environments. Their most notable contribution is the development of "Nothing Stands Still," a pioneering benchmark designed to evaluate 3D point cloud registration under conditions of large geometric and temporal change — a challenge that existing mapping frameworks have largely overlooked. By confronting the evolving nature of man-made spaces, Yan's work addresses a critical gap in how autonomous systems perceive and adapt to real-world environments that shift over time, whether due to construction, renovation, or everyday change. This research is fundamental to advancing robust mapping pipelines for applications in autonomous navigation, urban planning, and infrastructure monitoring. The benchmark has already begun attracting attention from the computer vision and robotics communities, accumulating citations across its iterations since 2023. While still in the early stages of building a citation record, Yan's targeted focus on a practically significant and underexplored problem positions them as a promising contributor to the next generation of spatially intelligent systems.
