About Me

Hi! I’m Zitai Wang (王子泰, E-mail: wangzitai@ict.ac.cn). Now I am a Post-doc Fellow at Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ICT, CAS). I received the Ph.D. degree in Institute of Information Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IIE, CAS), supervised by Prof. Qingming Huang (黄庆明) (IEEE Fellow). I am also lucky to have opportunities to collaborate with Qianqian Xu (许倩倩) (Professor at ICT, CAS), Xiaochun Cao (操晓春) (Professor at Shenzhen Campus of Sun Yat-sen University), Yuan He (何源) (Qiyuan Laboratory), Zhiyong Yang (杨智勇) (Assistant Professor at UCAS), Ke Ma (马坷) (Assistant Professor at UCAS), and Yangbangyan Jiang (姜阳邦彦) (Postdoc at UCAS).

My research interest includes machine learning and data mining. I have authored or co-authored several academic papers in top-tier international conferences and journals, including T-PAMI, IJCV, ICML, NeurIPS, AAAI, and ACM Multimedia.
