I am now working at Zalando (Berlin) as a Data Scientist. This site is no longer being maintained.  

Before working at Zalando, I was a Phd student in
Intelligent and Interactive System (IIS) group, University of Innsbruck (UIBK) Austria. My research in Innsbruck is mainly about machine learning in robot domain, such as robot (visual) perception learning robot sensory-motor  learning  and other related subjects.  My Phd study is supervised by Professor Justus Piater and Dr. Sandor Szedmak, with funding from the European Community's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) project Xperience.

Short Bio 

I was born and grew up in Fengcheng,  a small county located in JiangXi province, south of China.  In CV you can find more details about my hobbies and skills. Before I started my Phd at UIBK in 2011, I finished my Master in machine learning at University College London (UCL)UK in 2010,  and prior to that, I got my B.Eng degree in computer science and technology at Huaqiao UniversityChina in 2009.  I also worked in Kuang-chi Institute, China for a short term (2010.11~2011.1) as a machine learning engineer.
