I am currently a fourth-year PhD student at EECS, MIT. I am working with Prof. Vivienne Sze on energy efficient vision systems. I complete my master thesis under the supervision of Prof. Edward H. Adelson on computational photography.
Before I joined MIT, I worked at Microsoft Research Asia with Prof. Yi Ma on 3D reconstruction and rank minimization.
I finished my undergraduate study at Tsinghua Xuetang Special Pilot CS Class (Yao Class) supervised by Turing Award Winner Prof. Andrew Chi-Chih Yao in Institute of Interdisciplinary Information Sciences, Tsinghua University.
My research interest spans the area of sparsity, low-rank matrix recovery, symmetry/regularity of textures, 3D computer vision, computational photography, object detection and video compression. My current research focuses on the design of energy-efficient vision systems.
