About me

Hello, I’m Junfei. Welcome to my homepage.

I was born in 1997 and recently completed my Ph.D. at the National Engineering Center of Robot Visual Perception and Control Technology, Hunan University, under the supervision of Professor Yaonan Wang, Professor Jianxu Mao, and Professor Hui Zhang. From February 2024 to February 2025, I am a visiting student at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), working under the supervision of Professor Xiaojun Chang and Professor Hanyu Gu. I received my M.S. and B.S. degrees from Changsha University of Science and Technology in 2021 and Xi’an University of Posts & Telecommunications in 2018, respectively.

My research interests include image processing, object detection, and knowledge distillation.
