Lecturer at Tianjin Normal University

About Me

I am a Lecturer at Tianjin Normal University. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Technology from Tianjin University (2020.9-2025.3), supervised by Prof. Longbiao Wang and Prof. Jianwu Dang. My research focuses on speech signal processing, including speech enhancement, speech separation, speech recognition, voice activity detection, and other related areas. I have extensive international research experience through joint training programs at Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) and National University of Singapore.
