Biography

I am currently a Research Scientist at Shanghai AI Laboratory, working on video understanding. I am working closely with Prof. Yu Qiao, Prof. Limin Wang, and Dr. Yali Wang. I did my Ph.D. at CSE of The Chinese University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Jiaya Jia and Prof. Liwei Wang. My research interests include computer vision and deep learning, especially image generation and related applications. Before that, I got the M.Sc. degree from Peking University (supervised by Prof. Yuexian Zou).
