Hui Ding, PhD
I am an Applied Scientist at AWS AI Labs. I received my PhD at University of Maryland, College Park in 2020, advised by Professor Rama Chellappa. I received my Master degree from Shanghai Jiaotong University and Bachelor degree from Dalian University of Technology. I worked at Waymo, Adobe Research, PARC, and Siemens Healthineers during my PhD.
I work on vision-language sequence modeling and diffusion models.
