09/2018-Present    Deep Learning for Fine-grained Image Analysis
    ●  Propose a novel bidirectional attention-recognition model to actualize a bidirectional reinforcement of attention and recognition learning for weakly-supervised Fine-grained Object Classification. Propose a Distillation Learning (DL) method to fuse the knowledge from the entire object into region-based feature learning by knowledge distilling.

05/2018-Present    Deep Learning for Diagnosing Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip
    ●  To resolve the temporal diversity and pathological deformity challenge in X-ray based diagnosis of DDH, convert the detection of a landmark to the detection/segmentation of the landmark’s local neighborhood patch. Spatial attention and Adversarial learning are also employed to deal with the false positive detection.

09/2017-Present    Deep Learning for Pediatric Bone Age Assessment
    ●  Propose a novel weakly-supervised learning approach for Bone Age Assessment, which can discover and extract the discriminative bone parts without human prior. State-of-art performance has been achieved, and the proposed method exhibits interpretability, consistency and inspiration with human prior knowledge

09/2015-09/2017    Future Network Design based on Game Theory
    ●  Consider the network applications as game players driven by their best self-interest. A novel Media-attribute Switching is proposed with the idea of Mechanism Design. It can provide incentives for applications to label their media-attributes honestly, thus to protect the multimedia network with order and efficiency. Scalable Video Coding and MobilityFirst Network are also involved in this research.

09/2022-Present    Present Assistant Judge of the Ministry of Science and Technology
    ●  Assistant judge expert for the National Key Research and Development Program of the Ministry of Science and Technology. Participating in project review and performance evaluation. 

09/2014-07/2017    Teaching Assistant of Design Innovation
    ●  Teaching Assistant in USTC Design Innovation Course as well as Stanford University Global Alliance for Redesign. Master the skill of project management, team collaboration, product design and leadership.

09/2012-01/2015    Volunteer Assistant of Psychotherapists
    ●  Assist the psychotherapist to help the student with psychological problem in USTC. Master the skill of listening, observing and psychological counseling.
