Short Bio

I obtained a dual bachelor’s degree in 2022 from Northeastern University (China) and University of Toulouse III-Paul Sabatier through the E3A track. In 2024, I graduated from Paris-Saclay University (Orsay campus) with a master’s degree in Automatics, Signal and Image Processing.

Since November 2024, I have been a PhD student at EPITA, conducting my doctoral research under the supervision of Thierry Géraud, Guillaume Tochon, and Élodie Puybareau, in collaboration with Pierre-Henri Conze at IMT Atlantique.

My PhD research focuses on the methodological foundations of robust hierarchical image representation learning and explores its practical applications to Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease, with particular emphasis on cyst segmentation and quantitative analysis. This work aims to contribute to medical image analysis and support clinical research.

Research Interests
