Based on the Deep Generative Models lecture by Stefano Ermon, I wrote a brief tutorial note on energy, score, and diffusion-based models.From March 2021, I joined Microsoft Mixed Reality and AI Lab-Cambridge (UK) as a research scientist.
Finished my PhD on Deep Sequence Learning for Video Anticipation at the Australian National University.
Selected for Outstanding Reviewer Award at CVPR 2020.
