Ziyang Wang

I am a researcher at The Alan Turing Institute. Prior to this, I completed my DPhil (PhD) degree in Computer Science at the University of Oxford in 2024, MRes (Master of Research) degree with distinction at Imperial College London in 2018, and BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) degree at Xi’an Jiaotong University in 2017.

My current research interests focus on Large Vision Models, and Human-AI Interaction. Since 2021, I have published 29 papers as first/corresponding author, and 14 papers as co-author [Link]. The code for all my first-author papers is available on GitHub [Link], with 15 repositories and over 600 stars as of 2024. I also actively review for over 200 submissions [Link] [Link] for Nature Communications, IEEE TPAMI, IEEE TIP, IEEE TMI, ICLR, ICRA, and IROS, among others. I am a DAAD 2024 AInet Fellow, OYSS 2024 Fellow, received the MICCAI DEMI Best Paper Award, and IEEE SPS Travel Grant.

Feel free to reach out if you'd like to collaborate, share ideas, or simply connect.
