Introduction

I am currently a Ph.D. student in MUSIC Lab at School of Biomedical Engineering, Health Science Center, Shenzhen University, supervised by Prof. Dong Ni and Dr. Xin Yang.

My research interest is medical image computing. Specifically, I mainly focus on Reinforcement Learning in medical image analysis and robust deep learning model.
