About me (Curriculum Vitae)

I am currently in the Civil Engineering, Israel Institute of Technology , under the supervision of Professor. Sagi Filin.
I received my Bachelor’s degree and MSc degree in Wuhan University in Wuhan, China, where I was a member of the 2013 Leading Engineering Project in Geomatics Engineering and 2017 Project in Navigation, Guidance and Control.

Research

My research interests mainly lie in Sensor Fusion, Autonomous Mapping, Cognition-level Scene Understanding and 3D modelling and Geometric Deep Learning.
I started my research as working with GNSS/INS/LiDAR and mobile mapping at 2017. Most recent publications of mine are about neighbor definition and robust measures (tensor and L1-PCA) for classification, point-set denoising and neural point cloud upsampling and 3D modelling of complex shapes (trees).
