I am currently a research scientist at Google, working on Computer Vision and Deep Learning. I obtained my Ph.D. from University of Southern California, advised by Prof. Ram Nevatia. My thesis is on event detection and recounting from large-scale consumer videos.
Before coming to the United States, I got my bachelor degree in Computer Science from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. I have been lucky to intern with Sanketh Shetty and Rahul Sukthankar at Google Research; Lubomir Bourdev, Ronan Collobert and Manohar Paluri at Facebook AI Research.
