Biography
“Be Boundless.”
Haotian Zhang is a Research Scientist at Apple AI/ML, Visual Intelligence. His research aims to enable embodied agents to understand the outside world. To that end, he works on designing sensible modules that learn the effective representation of information from 2D/3D image data, as well as natural language. His recent work on GLIP&GLIPv2 has been accepted to the CVPR 2022 (Best Paper Finalist), and NeurIPS 2022. He also co-organized the ECCV 2022 workshop on Computer Vision in the Wild.
Prior to joining Apple, he obtained his Ph.D. in the Information Processing Lab at University of Washington, advised by Prof. Jenq-Neng Hwang, where he focused on monocular 3D object detection and multi-object tracking. He received his B.S. degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2017, supervised by Prof. Jun-Fa Mao.
He believes that living an interesting life is done by doing interesting things with interesting people, and that’s what he hopes to do 🔥.
