About

Associate Professor (tenure-track)
John Hopcroft Center for Computer Science
Shanghai Jiao Tong University

Research Interests

His research interests range across computer vision and machine learning.Now, he is leading a group for explainable AI. The related topics include interpretable CNNs, explainable generative networks,unsupervised semanticization of pre-trained neural networks, and unsupervised/weakly-supervised learning of neural networks. He aims to 1) end-to-end learn interpretable neural networks, and/or 2) unsupervisedly transform the black-box knowledge representation of pre-trained neural networks into a hierarchical and semantically interpretable graph. He believes a symbolic/graphical representation of CNN knowledge can ensure high transferability of features and help weakly-supervised learning from small data and will lead the future development of deep learning.
