Yuanhao Cai

I am currently a 1st year PhD student in the department of Computer Science, Johns Hopkins University. I am a member of CCVL, advised by Bloomberg Distinguished Professor Dr. Alan Yuille. Previously, I received my MSE and BSE degrees from Tsinghua University in 2023 and 2020. My master advisor is prof. Haoqian Wang. During my study in Tsinghua University, I spent a good time with prof. Yulun Zhang, prof. Xin Yuan, prof. Radu Timofte, and prof. Luc Van Gool.
