About Me (curriculum vitae)

We are hiring Research Interns, more details can be found here. Feel free to contact me..

I start my Ph.D in HPC-AI Lab at National University of Singapore (from August, 2021), supervised by Presidential Young Prof. Yang YOU.

My doctoral thesis committee is composed of Professor Tat Seng CHUA, who serves as the Chair, as well as Professor Mike SHOU and Professor Yang YOU.

I spend 12 months as a research intern in Alibaba DAMO Acadmey, I am fortunately to work with Prof. Rong Jin and Shuo Wang

Before coming to Alibaba, I received my M.S. degree in 2020 from University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, supervised by Prof. Yu Qiao and Assoc. Prof. Xiaojiang Peng .

My research areas include Dataset Distillation, Dataset Expandation, Dataset Denoising, Dataset Privacy, Noisy Robust Learning and so on.

I am so fortunately to work closely with Prof. Jiashi Feng, Prof. Hakan Bilen, Prof. Xinchao Wang, Dr. Bo Zhao, Dr. Zheng Zhu, Dr. Jianfei Yang, and Xiangyu Peng.
