Biography

I am second-year ph.D student in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Vanderbilt University supervised by Dr.Bennett Landman. Previously, I reveived the B.S and M.S degree from Department of Optics and Photonics in Beijing Institute of technology in 2016 and 2019 respectively, advised by Dr Dr.Jian Yang.

My reseach interests lie in the filed of machine learning, statistical analysis, diffusion MRI and medical image analysis. My current project is learning white matter segmentation from T1 weighted MRI without diffusion weighted MRI image.
