I have recently been a postdoctoral researcher at the Multimedia and Human Understanding Group (MHUG) of the University of Trento, and am fortunate to work closely with Prof. Nicu Sebe and Prof. Zhun Zhong. Previously, I got Ph.D. degree from Leiden University in 2022, supervised by Prof. Michael Lew. During my Ph.D. study, I worked with Prof. Yu Liu.

My research interest includes lifelong learning, federated learning, and popular computer vision tasks like person re-identification, visual question answering and novel/new category discovery.
