About Me

I am currently a forth-year Ph.D student at Computer Vision Lab (CVLab), École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), supervised by Dr. Mathieu Salzmann and Prof. Pascal Fua. Before that, I completed my bachelor's and master's degrees at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST). My research is centered around 3D computer vision, with a specific focus on multi-view geometry and point cloud analysis.
I am actively seeking opportunities for a postdoctoral position starting in the spring of next year.
