About Me

I am a technical lead at Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI), leading and founding the vision and multimodal research center (a.k.a. BAAI Vision). I received my PhD degree from The University of Adelaide, supervised by Prof. Chunhua Shen. Before that I obtained my Bachelor's degree from Tongji University. I was a recipient of the Google PhD Fellowship.

My research interests lie in the area of computer vision and foundation models. I work on visual perception (SOLO, SOLOv2), visual representation (DenseCL, EVA), visual generalist (Painter, SegGPT), multimodal representation (EVA-CLIP, Uni3D) and multimodal generalist (Emu, Emu2, Emu3).
