Intro

I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), supervised by Prof. Qiang Ji. My research interest lies in dynamic probabilistic models for human action recognition and detection. The applications of my research are mainly for video understanding. I also work on gait recognition and gesture recognition. Currently I am working on a DARPA project of open-world action recognition and explanation.

Open to work: I am graduating in Fall 2024, feel free to contact me ^_^
