Hi! I am a final-year PhD student in Computer Science at Stony Brook University, fortunately advised by Prof. Haibin Ling.

I am broadly interested in machine learning and computer vision, particularly vision-language learning, domain adaptation, weakly-supervised learning. I also work on adversarial attack and defense of neural networks.
