Short Bio

I am currently a Ph.D. student at State Key Laboratory of Internet of Things for Smart City (SKL-IOTSC), University of Macau, advised by Prof. Zhenning Li. Previously, I received my Bachelor's degree from Chang'an University and my Master's degree from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Before joining UM, I was also fortunate to be mentored by Prof. Ruimin Ke and Prof. Ruey (Kelvin) Cheu.

My research broadly centers on AI for Transportation, with a particular emphasis on autonomous driving and transportation safety. On these topics, I have published over 20 papers in top-tier journals such as IEEE TPAMI, IEEE TITS, as well as at leading AI conferences such as ICCV, AAAI, with several selected for oral presentations.

We are looking for self-motivated RAs to join our HUMAN LAB!
