| Brief Bio My
English name is Jason. I have joint SUN YAT-SEN University since Jan. 2011 under the one-hundred-people program. And I have been a full professor since Jan. 2016. I have been a Deputy Director of Key Laboratory of Machine Intelligence and Advanced Computing, Ministry of Education since July 2016. My early research was on face recognition based on subspace methods, when I worked for Ph.D. degree in Applied Mathematics with Prof. Jianhuang Lai and Prof.
Pong C. Yuen at Sun Yat-sen University and Hong Kong Baptist University. I have been a visiting student working with Prof.
Stan Z. Li at the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences. There, I started my research on sparsity learning for pattern recognition with sparse one-sided non-negativity matrix factorisation. After 2008, I worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher on the European
SAMURAI project for person association with Prof.
Shaogang Gong and Dr.
Tao Xiang. In Queen
Mary University of London, I proposed to use relative comparison to overcome the ill-posed matching problem between the appearance of people across non-overlapping camera views. The
idea was also extended to group of people association. I also created an i-LIDS dataset for evaluating this matching problem. After I joined Sun Yat-sen University in 2011, I am
now focusing on three research areas: 1) person re-identification under challenging scenarios, 2) action prediction and group activity recognition, and 3) the related large scale machine learning research (hashing for fast search, unsupervised learning, and deep learning). | Honours - NSFC for Excellent Young Scientist Programme (国家优秀青年科学基金) - Royal Society-Newton Advanced Fellowship (英 国皇家学会牛顿高级学者基金) - Guangdong Province Science and Technology Innovation Leading Talents (广东省科技创新领军人才) - Guangdong
