Biography
Dr. Zhen Li got the Bachelor Degree and Master Degree at Sun Yat-Sen University in 2011 and 2014, and Ph.D. at University of Hong Kong in 2018. Dr. Zhen Li was visiting researcher in Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago (TTIC), the University of Chicago in 2016 and 2018. He joined The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) and Shenzhen Research Institute of Big Data (SRIBD) in September 2018.
Dr. Zhen Li?is interested in the?protein structure prediction from sequence to folding level using data-driven and deep learning algorithms. He is the core team member of protein structure prediction competition (CASP12) champion, which is reward the PLOS Computational Biology Research Prize 2018 in the category Breakthrough Advance/Innovation. He is also interested in machine learning algorithms and the following computer vision topics such as?RGB-D semantic segmentation, shape completion and etc.
