About

I am a PhD student in The Chinese University of HongKong, Shenzhen and FNii, where I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Zhen Li and Prof. Shuguang Cui. I currently focus on lane topology reasoning and autonomous driving with T Lab, Tencent. Previously, I got my M.S. at the SEIT, Sun Yat-sen University, where I work on heterogeneous face recognition and person Re-ID under the supervision of Prof. Haifeng Hu and Dr. Weipeng Hu. I'm always looking for related colaboration. If you are interested to chat with me, feel free to drop me an email.
