About Me

I am a Senior Research Scientist at Meta Generative AI (FB page). My current research interests lie in Computer Vision and Deep Learning, especially learning with limited supervision, vision & language, Generative AI, scene understanding and etc.

I received my Ph.D degree from Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, Northeastern University, advised by Prof. Yun Fu. Please find the webpage of our lab here SmileLab. I have also spent time at Google Research, Adobe Research, Bytedance AI Lab U.S. and Siemens Research as a research intern.
