Hello! I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at NYU Courant. I am also affiliated with NYU Center for Data Science. Before that I was a research
scientist at Facebook AI Research (FAIR), Menlo Park. I
received my Ph.D. and M.S. degrees from CSE Department at UC San Diego, advised by Zhuowen Tu.
During my PhD study, I also interned at NEC Labs, Adobe, Facebook, Google, DeepMind. Prior to
that, I obtained my bachelor degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
My primary areas of interest in research are deep learning and computer vision. My goal is to
develop improved representation learning techniques that aid machines in comprehending and
utilizing massive amounts of structured information, as well as to push the boundaries of visual
recognition by learning better representations at scale.
I'm seeking PhD candidates to join our group starting in Fall 2024.
If you're interested in collaborating with me for your doctoral studies,
please submit your application to the Courant CS Ph.D. program and
be sure to include my name in your application materials.
Internship opportunity
From time to time, our group at NYU offers visiting researcher positions for individuals
from different backgrounds. If you possess a strong passion for applying representation
learning to tackle complex challenges in machine learning, computer vision (among many other
exciting domains!), please feel free to send me an email with your CV.
Services
I am serving as an Area Chair for NeurIPS 2023, ECCV 2020/2022, ICCV 2021/2023,
and CVPR 2021/2022, ICLR 2024.
