About Me
I am a PhD student under the supervision of Dr. Miaojing Shi, Dr. Holger Caesar, and Prof. Tomasz Radzik at the Visual Computing Lab, Department of Informatics, King's College London, UK. I am also affiliated with King's Institute for Artificial Intelligence. Before joining KCL, I had a great time as an Algorithm Engineer at Horizon Robotics and ByteDance, respectively. I obtained my Bachelor of Engineering degree from South China University of Technology in 2018.
Research Interests
Multimodal Scene Understanding (Panoptic Scene Graph Generation)
