Biography

I am a staff scientist/research manager at Alibaba DAMO Academy. Previously, I held positions in Academia (i.e., Fudan University as a faculty member) and Industry (i.e., Tencent AI Lab as a researcher). I got my PhD/MPhil degrees from City University of Hong Kong during which I visited Adobe Research and UC Merced, and got my bachelor's degree from University of Science and Technology of China. My research resides in computer vision and machine learning, with 50+ premier papers (i.e., CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, PAMI, IJCV) published. Currently, I am working on multi-modality AI, from model-centric, data-centric, and human-centric perspectives, with applications centered around computer vision. I am an IEEE senior member, and have been elected among the Top 2% Scientists worldwide by Stanford University.
