About me

I am a Ph.D student in vision and media lab, Simon Fraser University (SFU) supervised by Professor Greg Mori. I also work closely with Professor Leonid Sigal (UBC),  Andreas Lehrmann (Facebook),  Joe Marino (Caltech),  Cheng Zhang (Microsoft Research) and Stephan Mandt (Disney Research).

My focus is on automatic structured representation learning by combining deep learning, graphical models and information theory. The ultimate goal is to give machines the power to learn the world automatically.
