Biography

I am currently a full professor at School of Mathematics and Statistics, Xi'an Jiaotong University. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at MMLab@NTU of Nanyang Technological University and The University of Hong Kong, working with Prof. Chen Change Loy and Prof. Kenneth K.Y. Wong. I received my Ph.D. degree from Xi'an Jiaotong University under the supervision of Prof. Deyu Meng in 2021.

Research Interest

My work focus on the noise modeling method in machine learning and the image restoration problem in low-level computer vision. Specifically, I mainly investigate how to design more efficient and interpretable image restoration models by incorporating the more robust noise modeling technologies and the classical Bayesian methods. Recently, I focus on the following research topics:

Diffusion model and its application
Noise modeling
Blind image restoration
Bayesian methods in image processing
