My name is Zixiang Zhao (赵子祥, pronounced ‘Tzu-Hsiang Chao’). I am currently a PhD student in School of Mathematics and Statistics, Xi’an Jiaotong University, supervised by Prof. Jiangshe Zhang.
I am now a visiting Ph.D. student in the great Computer Vision Lab, ETH Zürich, Switzerland, supervised by Prof. Luc Van Gool and working closely with Prof. Radu Timofte, Dr. Yulun Zhang and Dr. Kai Zhang.
I have been fortunate enough to work as a Research Assistant at Visual Computing Group, Harvard University, supervised by Prof. Hanspeter Pfister and work closely with Dr. Zudi Lin.
I also work closely with Prof. Deyu Meng and Assoc. Prof. Shuang Xu in Xi’an Jiaotong University.
My research lies at low-level computer vision and model-based image processing, and my current research is multi-modal image fusion and restoration.
I’m open to any kinds of collaboration. Please feel free to contact me directly through email.
