Biography

I am currently studying for a master's degree in department of automation, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), advised by Xueyang Fu and Zheng-jun Zha.

My research interests focus on computer vision, especially behavior modeling, logic learning and low-level vision (deblurring, super-resolution and deraining).

I’m open to any kinds of collaboration. Please feel free to contact me directly through email.
