Biography

I am currently a senior research associate in the School of Computing Sciences at the University of East Anglia, working with Prof. Yingliang Ma on the development of computer vision algorithms as well as applications in medical image analysis and image-guided surgery.

Before that, I received my Ph.D. degree from the School of Automation Science and Electrical Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing, China, under the supervision of Prof. Weihai Chen and Prof. Zhengguo Li.

My research interests lie in computer vision and artificial intelligence, with a particular focus on visual and scene understanding. My current focus is on medical image segmentation and video object segmentation.
