Xiaoming Li

I am a Tenure-Track Associate Professor with PRLab at the School of Intelligence Science and Technology, Nanjing University (Suzhou Campus). I was a research fellow at MMLab@NTU, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, working with Prof. Chen Change Loy. I obtained my joint Ph.D degrees from Harbin Institute of Technology and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, under the supervision of Prof. Wangmeng Zuo and Prof. Lei Zhang. My research interests lie in high-fidelity image restoration (face/text) and controllable image generation.
