Hammond Liu | 刘浩铭

Background

I’m a senior at NYU Shanghai, pursuing a CS major and a Math minor. I love uncovering mysteries and finding patterns behind them. Designing deep learning models and writing code elegantly has brought me a lot of fun. Currently, I’m applying for Ph.D. and thesis-track M.S. programs.

I’m interested in Deep Learning in general, though my research experience was more dedicated to Computer Vision. I wish to tackle the lack-of-resource scenarios in real-world applications through data-efficient learning paradigms or generic feature representations. I’m also open to other topics that fit my background and have application prospects - I want to do something practical instead of improving SOTAs blindly. My recent research is about generalized few-shot segmentation.
