Applied AI Researcher & Engineer

I am an applied AI researcher and engineer at China Telecom in Suzhou. My work focuses on multimodal large language models and computer vision, with an emphasis on developing reliable systems for real-world applications.

Previously, I worked on end-to-end autonomous-driving perception at Momenta, parking and BEV perception at HoloMatic, and map-change discovery at Alibaba Amap. I received my M.Eng. from the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and my B.Eng. from Harbin Institute of Technology.

China Telecom

Police-call classification and quality inspection with LLMs

Fine-tuned and deployed Qwen3 7B/14B/32B models for a four-level taxonomy with 1,145 subclasses. Designed long-tail sampling, instruction templates, evaluation, and private-platform serving.

  • 97%+ overall accuracy
  • 99.9%+ accuracy on critical classes
  • <0.5 s inference per case
Momenta

End-to-end perception for cruise and AEB

Migrated a two-stage DD3D system to a one-stage EBM architecture. Combined Transformer, BEV and perspective-view features with radar and egomotion for robust detection.

  • 67.3 โ†’ 68.8 CPD
  • 92.1% AEB success rate
Momenta

Failsafe perception under extreme conditions

Improved visual risk detection under glare and occlusion. Fused local visual patches with planning trajectories, LiDAR, and radar to refine alarm triggering and degradation strategies.

  • 77.7% โ†’ 82.7% recall @ precision โ‰ฅ 0.9
  • 51 โ†’ 6,000+ CPI
  • 1 / 14,000 km false-alarm frequency
Alibaba Amap

Lane and road-object change discovery

Developed change-detection systems using multi-frame image features, HD-map geometry, localization, matching, and temporal fusion for automated map updates.

  • 92% recall at 2.5% FPR for lane changes
SenseTime

Industrial anomaly detection for high-speed rail inspection

Developed and optimized the target-detection module for a high-speed-rail defect-inspection system. Designed task-augmentation methods for difficult insulator and dropper cases, and contributed models for barcode localization and industrial component quality inspection.

  • 14.9% โ†’ 1.0% FPR @ recall 0.99 for insulator defects
  • 14.7% โ†’ 0.03% FPR @ recall 0.99 for dropper defects
  • ~90% reduction in manual inspection workload
SenseTime

Face anti-spoofing for production recognition systems

Designed monocular and binocular liveness-detection models for commercial face-recognition systems. Built a reusable model zoo, standardized training pipeline, and visualization tools, while independently leading deployment projects for major device manufacturers.

  • 0.0001% FPR for the binocular anti-spoofing model
