Hello!

I am a third-year PhD student at the University of Maryland, College Park, where I am advised by Prof. Amitabh Varshney and work with Prof. Jia-Bin Huang. In addition to computer vision and deep learning research, I have also tackled problems in visual psychophysics under the guidance of Prof. Ralf Haefner and Prof. Greg DeAngelis to study human perception of moving objects during ego motion.

I am very intrigued by human × machine intelligence. In particular, I am interested in 3D vision, multimodal learning beyond image / text / audio, and efficient AI with minimal supervision. I aim to contribute to the nascent field of NeuroAI, which aligns with my belief that the progress of AI and robotics should be driven by fundamental scientific insights from neuroscience, cognitive science, biology, physics, etc. As such, my goal is to leverage multisensory information to empower embodied agents not only to perceive – but also to understand and reason about – the dynamic 3D world accurately and autonomously.
