I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Machine Learning Group, CS Department, University of Toronto. My advisors are Prof. Raquel Urtasun and Prof. Richard Zemel. I am also part of Uber ATG and Vector Institute. I received my B.S. degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University advised by Prof. Cewu Lu.

My research interests involve Machine Learning and Computer Vision. Prior to UofT, I spent a wonderful year working with Prof. Bo Li at UIUC as a research intern and did some works on trustworthy machine learning.
