Brief Bio

I got a Ph.D degree from Institution of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA) in 2009. During 2009 - 2011, I was a researcher at Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT), China Lab. Then I went back to NLPR, CASIA as an assistant professor (2011-2015), and came to US as a research scholar at SUNY Albany (2013-2015, Supervisor: Prof. Siwei Lyu). In October 2015, I joined Snap as a software engineer.

I am interested in computer vision, computer graphics, image processing and their industrial applications.
