🐑 About Me
I am now a final-year Ph.D. student at Sichuan University (四川大学), advised by Yi Zhang(张意). I’m also a visiting student at A*Star, advised by Joey Tianyi Zhou and Ming Yan. I have published over 40 papers
in top-tier journals and conferences, including IJCV, IEEE T-IFS, IEEE T-NNLS, IEEE T-IM, IEEE T-CSVT, IEEE J-BHI, IEEE J-STSP, CVPR, MICCAI, WWW, and others. Additionally, I have served as a reviewer for several prestigious journals and conferences, such as IEEE T-IFS, IEEE T-IP, IEEE T-DSC, IEEE T-MI, IEEE T-MM, IEEE T-NNLS, IEEE T-CSVT, IEEE T-SMCS, IEEE T-II, IEEE T-BC, CVPR, ICCV, and MICCAI, among others.
If you have any advice or are interested in exploring academic collaborations, please feel free to contact me at cziyuanyang@gmail.com. I welcome your insights and look forward to potential collaborations.
My research interests encompass the following areas:
- Biometrics
- Federated Learning
- AI in Healthcare
