Tao Ma  

I am currently a 3rd-year Ph.D. candidate at Multimedia Laboratory (MMLab) of The Chinese University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Hongsheng Li and Prof. Xiaogang Wang. My research focuses on scene perception and understanding in autonomous driving, which mainly includes onboard and offboard 3D object detection with point cloud and image data.

Better research, better life. I love cycling sports, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or similar interests.
