Biography
I am a 5th-year Ph.D. student at Cornell University, where I work with Prof. Kilian Q. Weinberger. I obtained my B.S. degree in Computer Science from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, advised by Prof. Cewu Lu. I have also spent great times at Berkeley DeepDrive, working with Prof. Trevor Darrell and Prof. Fisher Yu.
My research interests lie in Computer Vision, Machine Learning, and their intersections in Self Driving.
