Short Bio

I received my Ph.D degree from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) in 2025, supervised by Prof. Sai-Kit Yeung. I am also very fortuned to work with Prof. Binh-Son Hua and Prof. Jianbo Shi. I received my bachelor degree from Ocean University of China (OUC) in 2019. After graduation, I joined UISEE. By the end of 2020, I joined in CFM center of University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) as a research assistant supervised by Prof. Yang Yang. My research interests lie in computer vision and deep learning, building effective and powerful foundation models.
