Dawei Zhang - Prospective Students

To Prospective Students:

The Visual Intelligence and Multimedia Systems (VIMS) group is a part of the Machine Learning and Vision Laboratory in the School of Computer Science and Technology at Zhejiang Normal University. The VIMS group is led by Dr. Dawei Zhang.

Research Interests:

Visual Perception: Image enhancement, fine-grained recognition, visual saliency, object counting, and medical image segmentation.
Motion Analysis: Single object tracking, uav tracking, rgb-x tracking, pose tracking, person re-id, and multiple object tracking.
Deep Learning: Vision transformer, mamba, lightweight neural networks, prompt learning, domain adaption, and adversarial attack.
Multimedia Computing: Multimodal image fusion, image/video caption generation, cross-modal retrieval, vision and language.

We are currently looking for three or four self-motivated master students each year to work on interesting research in computer vision, such as object detection, visual tracking, saliency detection, multi-modal image fusion, person re-identification, lightweight neural networks, adversarial attack and other related areas. Qualified students will be supported by research assistantships.

We prefer the students who have solid mathematical foundations, strong programming skills, and good English abilities (listening/reading/writing). The experiences in research (e.g. projects, academic competition, publications, etc.) will be a benefit. If you are highly creative, and interested in computer vision, please do not hesitate to send your CV and transcripts of grades to davidzhang@zjnu.edu.cn

Admissions Commitments:

Provide a full range of effective academic guidance in algorithm design, experimental verification, paper writing, patent application, etc, so that the students are expected to gain solid professional knowledge, strong practical ability, broad academic vision.
Provide you enjoyable scientific research atmosphere, comfortable office environment, generous academic allowance/rewards, and efficient gpu computing equipment.
For the students who succesfully get their reseach papers accepted by top conferences, we will financially support them to participate in the conferences. Extra bonus is also distributed.

This should be enough to get you started research. Happy coding!

Note: In addition to master students, motivated undergraduate students within ZJNU are also welcome. If you're interested in conducting research projects, please contact me by e-mail.
