Biography

    I received the B.Eng. degree in Automation from the China University of Petroleum, Qingdao, China, in 2019 and the M.Sc. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the City University of Hong Kong (CityU), Hong Kong SAR, China, in 2020. I'm currently working toward the Ph.D. degree at CityU with the supervision of Prof. Youfu Li. I work in the field of computer vision and deep learning, and focus on the following research topics:

• Visual Perception with Event Cameras
• Representation Learning
• Multi-Modal Fusion (e.g., RGB, Event Stream, Depth, and 3D Point Cloud)
