I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Information Sciences and the Coordinated Science Laboratory at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I am also affiliated with the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering.

Previously, I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science at Max Planck Institute for Informatics and my B.S. in Electronic Information Engineering at Tianjin University. I also spent time at Johns Hopkins, Oxford VGG, and National University of Singapore. My biography is here.

My research lies at the intersection of computer vision and machine learning, with a special focus on building intelligent visual systems that are continual and data-efficient. My research interests include continual learning, few-shot learning, semi-supervised learning, generative models, 3D geometry models, and medical image analysis.

We have multiple PhD student openings in Information Sciences, Computer Science, and Informatics for Fall 2026. You may see details here.
