PhD in Computer Science and Engineering

UC Santa Cruz

I am a 4th-year PhD student at UC Santa Cruz, supervised by Prof. Cihang Xie. Before this, I received my M.S. degree at Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Science in 2021, and my B.Eng. degree at Central South University in 2018. I have also spent wonderful times at LLNL, QCraft and Megvii (Face++).

My research interests mainly lie in the intersection of computer vision and machine learning, with a particular interest for building robust models under distribution shifts and malicious attacks, and developing efficient and effective multi-modal representation learning techniques.
