Yajie Zhao(赵雅洁)

I'm Yajie Zhao, a Research Associate at USC-ICT. I'm currently leading the research related to ICT Light Stage. We are aiming at making the high resolution facial data accessible to the whole research community. My current research interests are high resolution human face/body 3D representation, neural rendering and human/scene related applications in VR/AR .

I'm also excited about problem solving related to computer graphics, computer vision and image processing areas.

I got my Ph.D in computer science from University of Kentucky under the supervision of Dr. Ruigang Yang. Before that, I got my B.S. degree in computer science from Xi'an Jiaotong University in China.

Here is my CV.
