About me
I am currently a professor of Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences. I received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Mathematics from Wuhan University in 1998 and 2001, respectively. After that, I got Ph.D degree in pattern recognition and intelligent systems from Institute of Automation in 2004, Chinese Academy of Sciences. From 2004 to 2006, I have been working as postdoctoral in Nokia Research Center. Then I joined National Lab of Pattern Recognition, Institute of Automation. I have authored or co-authored more than 100 academic papers.
