Biography

I am currently a senior researcher at YouTu Lab@Tencent, Shenzhen, working with Dr. Yefeng Zheng (IEEE Fellow). I received my Ph.D. degree from School of Mathematics and Statistics, Xi'an Jiaotong University, China, in 2021, under the supervision of Prof. Deyu Meng. Before that, I received my M.Sc degree under the supervision of Prof. Zhaoyang Zhang from School of Information and Electronical Engineer, Zhejiang University, in 2018, and the B.S. degree from School of Communication and Information Engineer, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, in 2015.

Research Interest

Currently, I work in the field of medical image analysis (such as, CT/MRI reconstruction, medical image diagnosis) and natural image restoration (such as, derain/super-resolution/low-light enhancement). Specifically, I mainly investigate how to combine traditional model-driven method and data-driven deep learning techniques for effective and interpretable image processing. Recently, I focus on the following research topics:

Deep Unfolding Image Restoration
Bayesian Methods in Image Processing
Foundation-model-driven Image Restoration
Continual Learning, Federated learning, Multi-task Learning
