Biography

Received a Ph.D. degree in computer science from Institute of Computing Technology (ICT), Chinese Academy of Science (CAS), Beijing, in Jun. 2020, advised by professor Shiguang Shan. I was also fortunate to cooperate tightly with Jiabei Zeng during my four year phd candidate career.

Awarded as one of the outstanding doctoral dissertations in the China Society of Image and Graphics in 2021 (Total of 10 in China Mainland Per Year).

I focus on artifical intelligence, multimodal learning, generative modelling.

The ultimate goal of my research is to empower machines with emotion and reasoning intelligence.
