Since September 2021, I have been studying for a Ph.D. degree in Control Science and Engineering at the College of Intelligence Science and Technology of National University of Defense Technology (NUDT) under the supervision of Prof. Dewen Hu and Prof. Li Liu. In addition, I have been working as a visiting researcher at the Center for Machine Vision and Signal Analysis, University of Oulu, Finland, since November 2022. Prior to that, I received my Bachelor’s degree in Automation from Hefei University (HFU) in 2018, and received my Master’s degree in Biomedical Engineering from Northeastern University (NEU) in 2021 under the supervision of Prof. Chen Li. My research interests include computer vision, pattern recognition, and deep learning.
