About Me

Greetings! My name is Hao Tang. I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science, and a member of Multimedia and Human Understanding Group (MHUG) at the University of Trento (Italy), under the supervision of Prof. Nicu Sebe. I received my Master degree in Computer Science from the Peking University (China) in 2016, under the supervision of Prof. Hong Liu. During my Ph.D. study, I was fortunate to visit Department of Computer Science, Texas State University (USA) in 2018 and 2019, working with Prof. Yan Yan. My research interests are machine learning, human-computer interaction, (deep) representation learning, robotics and their applications to computer vision.
My motto: If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.
