Chen Wei

I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student at Johns Hopkins University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Bloomberg Distinguished Professor Alan L. Yuille.

Before that, I received my B.S. in Computer Science from Peking University. I also spent great time at FAIR in Meta, Google, and Noah's Ark Lab.

My research focus is self-supervised learning for computer vision.
