I am now a staff researcher at Kuaishou Technology, focusing on the tasks of AIGC.
2023.04 - 2024.06, I was a research engineer at Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence (BIGAI)
2021.07 - 2023.04, I was a research engineer at Kuaishou Technology.
2016.09 - 2021.07, I was a Ph.D student at Institute of Computing Technology, CAS, under the supervision of Prof. Shiguang Shan.
2019.10 - 2020.03, I was a visiting researcher at Oulu University under the supervision of Prof. Guoying Zhao.
2012.09 - 2016.07, I was a college student in Nankai University, Tianjin.
Research Interest
My research interests mainly focus on the deep perception and understanding of the real world, especially understanding human face, body and the environment from 2D images and 3D representations. I am also very interested in the human-machine interaction as well as the basic theories of deep learning.
