I am a second-year Ph.D. candidate at the School of Electronic Information and Communications, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. I am advised by Prof. Wenyu Liu and Prof. Xinggang Wang, and work with the HUST Vision Lab.
I received my B.Eng. degree in Microelectronics Science and Engineering from HUST in 2023. My research interests include unified model and autonomous driving.
