Biography
I am an Associate Professor of the School of Intelligence Science and Technology at Nanjing University, as of March 2024. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Computer Vision Lab, ETH Zurich, Switzerland. I received my Ph.D. degree from School of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Institute of Technology, China, in 2019, under the supervision of Prof. Lei Zhang and Prof. Wangmeng Zuo. I was a research assistant from July, 2015 to July, 2017 and from July, 2018 to April, 2019 in Department of Computing of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
Research Interest
I work in the field of image processing, with a specific focus on developing deep learning techniques for inverse problems in low-level computer vision. I mainly explore incorporating model-based methods and learning-based methods for flexible, effective, efficient and interpretable image restoration. Recently, I focus on the following research topics:- Deep plug-and-play image restoration
- Deep unfolding image restoration
- Camera pipeline
- Blind image restoration
PyTorch Toolbox for Image Restoration
- KAIR (support training and testing for DnCNN, FFDNet, SRMD, USRNet, ESRGAN)
- DPIR (Plug-and-Play Image Restoration with Deep Denoiser Prior)
