Yuezun Li (李岳尊)

I am an assistant professor/lecturer in the institute of Artificial Intelligence, at Ocean University of China. My research interest lies at computer vision, machine learning and multimedia forensics.

I was a Senior Research Scientist at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering of University at Buffalo, SUNY, working with Prof. Siwei Lyu. I was a summer intern at GE glocal research center during 2016 - 2018. I received Ph.D. degree in computer science at University at Albany, SUNY in 2020, advised by Prof. Siwei Lyu. I received M.S. degree in Computer Science in 2015 and B.S. degree in Software Engineering in 2012 at Shandong University.


                 

 Research group: Currently I am leading Vision Analysis and Security (VAS) group, which interests in computer vision, DNN security and multimedia forensics. Our group has multiple openings. Please drop me an email if you are interested in internship / M.S. program.
