I am a Senior Lecturer and ARC DECRA Fellow at the School of Computer Science and Engineering, The University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney), Australia. I also hold an adjunct position with the Australian Institute for Machine Learning (AIML) of The University of Adelaide. Before joining UNSW in 2022, I was a Research Fellow at the Australian Institute for Machine Learning (AIML), a Principal Researcher at Centre for Augmented Reasoning (CAR), The University of Adelaide, working with Prof. Anton van den Hengel, Prof. Qinfeng (Javen) Shi and Prof. Chunhua Shen. I obtained my PhD and B.S. in computer science from Northwestern Polytechnical University in 2018 and 2012, advised by Prof. Yanning Zhang. During my PhD studies, I spent two years at The University of Adelaide, working with Javen and Anton. I am continually seeking highly motivated PhD, MPhil, or visiting students with passion and background for computer vision and machine learning.

Research Interests
I have broad interests in machine learning and computer vision. My current major research topics are about:
learning with non-ideal supervision in dynamic real-world scenarios, e.g.,
- continual learning
- unsupervised/semi-supervised/domain-adaptive learningpre-trained model adaptation, reuse, and alignment
generative models
high-level visual perception & low-level vision problems, e.g.,
- semantic and depth prediction
- image restoration and enhancementdeep learning model design and optimization, e.g.,
- memory mechanism in deep learning
interdisciplinary problems with of CV, ML, and DL technologies, e.g.,
- mining and agriculture
