About Me

I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student in Computer Engineering at Boston University, advised by Prof. Kayhan Batmanghelich. Prior to that, I received my M.S. degree in Intelligent Systems from University of Pittsburgh, and B.S. degree in Bioinformatics from Southern University of Science and Technology, China, where I did my undergraduate thesis with Prof. Wei Chen.

My research interests lie in self-supervised learning and multi-modal learning.
