About Me

I am a joint Ph.D. student at the College of Optical Science and Engineering, Zhejiang University and Shanghai AI Laboratory. I passed the master’s-to-doctoral assessment at Zhejiang University in 2022 and received support from the first cohort of the Pujiang National Laboratory Joint Training Ph.D. Program (2022-2025). My research is conducted under the supervision of Dr. Yueting Chen and co-supervision of Prof. Tianfan Xue. Prior to joining the Pujiang National Laboratory program, I pursued my Master of Science degree under the guidance of Prof. Huajun Feng at Zhejiang University (2020-2022).

I completed my undergraduate studies at Central South University (2016-2020), where I received the National Scholarship and was recognized as an Outstanding Graduate of Hunan Province.

I have collaborated closely with Shi Guo, Zhihai Xu, Jinwei Gu, Xuelong Li, Qi Li, and Bin Zhao.

Research Interests

My research interests focus on interdisciplinary areas related to “AI for Imaging”, including:

  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Optics
  • Graphics
  • Computer Vision
  • Remote Sensing

I aim to integrate these disciplines to develop innovative imaging technologies and applications.
