Short Bio


    I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at the CSE department, State University of New York at Buffalo (UB), advised by Prof. Junsong Yuan. Before that, I got B.Eng. from Tianjin University, where I continued one-year M.Eng. study and left for UB before finishing the degree. I received the Best Graduate Research Award and Best First Year Achiever Award from the CSE department of UB. My previous research experience lies in object understanding in videos and images including detection, segmentation, and tracking; open-set object understanding with vision and language.

ArXiv Preprint, 2022
Our new work, GRiT, is a general and open-set object understanding framework that localizes objects and can generate any style of free-form texts it was trained with to describe objects, e.g., class names, descriptive sentences (including object attributes, actions, etc). GRiT can be applied in various region/object-level tasks, e.g., object detection, object captioning.
