I’m a third-year Ph.D. student supervised by Daisuke Deguchi and Hiroshi Murase at VisLab, Nagoya University, interested in high-level CV topics from detection to segmentation.

Prior to Nagoya University, I obtained my B.ENG and M.ENG in Information and Communication Engineering from Northeastern University (NEU), where I focused on medical image analysis.

Lately, I’ve been focusing on Zero-shot and Open-Vocabulary Vision tasks based on Vision-Language models and My CV can be obtained here.
