🙋♂️ About Me
I am currently a Ph.D. student at the School of Computer and Artificial Intelligence, Zhengzhou University (郑州大学), under the supervision of Prof. Mingliang Xu (徐明亮) and Prof. Shupan Li (李书攀).
I am also privileged to receive remote academic guidance from Prof. Muhammad Haris Khan at the Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) and Prof. Hao Dong (董浩) at the ELLIS Institute Finland and Tampere University.
My research interests primarily focus on Domain Generalization and Multimodal Learning.
I am always open to potential research collaborations and discussions, feel free to get in touch via email.
