About Me

I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Bio-Vision Systems Lab at the Shanghai Institute of Microsystems and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. I received my Ph.D. degree from Shanghai University in 2022, where I was supervised by Prof. Zhi Liu. From July 2021 to July 2022, I was a visiting Ph.D. student at the University of Manitoba under the supervision of Prof. Yang Wang. I obtained my M.Sc. degree from Shantou University in 2018, supervised by Prof. Zemin Cai. My postdoctoral mentor is Prof. Guang Chen, and our laboratory is also under the academic supervision of Prof. Changjun Jiang. My research interests include machine learning, meta-learning, and domain adaptation, with applications in image classification, gaze estimation, point cloud, remote sensing, and related areas.
