Hello! Welcome to my website!

I am a final year Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, and I am expected to graduate in June, 2025. I am affiliated with the Notre Dame Computer Vision Research Lab (ND CVRL), and advised by Dr. Walter J. Scheirer.

My main research projects focus on Computer Vision, Machine Learning and their intersection with human psychology and cognitive science. We explore how humans perceive the world and how we can utilize human feedback to improve/fine-tune machine learning models, and we also evaluate these models and explore how they perform compare to human subjects.

Besides, I am also interested in fundamental Computer Vision problems such as classification, segmentation and detection. Recently, I have been working on Foundational Models, Multi-modal Large Language Models, Vision-Language Models and their applications.

Before joining Notre Dame for my Ph.D., I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering from Nankai University in 2016 and my Master’s degree in Computer Science from New York University in 2018. During my journey, I have been fortunate to work for Singularity.AI, and to intern with Kitware Inc, Dolby Laboratories and W. W. Grainger.
