I am a PostDoc researcher at Imperial College London, working with Jiankang Deng and Stefanos Zafeiriou. I obtained my Ph.D. in WILLOW team of Inria Paris and DI ENS under the supervision of Cordelia Schmid, Shizhe Chen and Ivan Laptev on computer vision and robotics. I obtained my master degree from Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, supervised by Liang Wang and Yan Huang. I received my bachelor degree from Northwestern Polytechnical University.
