Biography

I am currently a research fellow at MMLab@NTU, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, working with Prof. Chen Change Loy. Before that, I received my joint Ph.D degrees from Harbin Institute of Technology in 2021 and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2022, under the supervision of Prof. Wangmeng Zuo and Prof. Lei Zhang. I was a research intern in Alibaba DAMO Academy from Nov. 2019 to Nov. 2021.

Research Interest

My interests are in the field of computer vision, especially on the image editing and restoration. Currently, I mainly focus on solving the real-world low-quality image restoration problems. Besides, I am also interested in the following research topics:

Image Restoration and Editing
GAN Priors
Image Inpainting and Completion
Face Related Tasks
