Research

My general research interests lie in object re-identification, image retrieval, and deep metric learning, with a particular emphasis on the following topics:

• Theory:
  Analysis and understanding of the generalization ability of various loss functions.

• Algorithm:
  Development of effective deep learning algorithms for object re-identification and image retrieval.

• Application:
  Application of learning algorithms in object re-identification, image retrieval, and deep metric learning.

Feel free to drop me an email if you are interested in collaborating with me on the above research topics.
