Biography

Since Jan. 2019, I am a tenure-track assistant professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I advise both PhD and MS students in computer science. Prior to that, I was a postdoc researcher with Australian Centre for Robotic Vision at the University of Adelaide. I completed my PhD study at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2016. During the fall of 2013 to the fall of 2015, I was a joint-training PhD student at University of California, Merced. I received bachelor and master degrees from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China in 2008 and 2011 respectively.

I am interested in computer vision and machine learning problems. Typically, I am working on

• motion and tracking

• video understanding

• vision and language

• image restoration and enhancement

• virtual digital human
