Brief CV

I received the PhD degree from Nanjing University of Science and Technology (NUST), on the subject of pattern recognition and intelligence systems in 2014 (supervisor Jian Yang). Currently, I am an associate professor of School of Computer Science and Engineering in NUST and a faculty member of PCALab. I was selected as a Hong Kong Scholar in China in 2018.

Research Interests

My current research mainly include pattern recognition and computer vision. More specially, I am interested in:

sparse/low-rank theory, optimal transport, representation learning and disguised face recognition.
