Hi there! This is Zhixiong Yang (杨志雄), I am a Ph.D. student at School of Electronic Science, National University of Defense Technology, advised by Prof. Jingyuan Xia and Prof. Yaowen Fu. Previously, I received my bachelor degree from the Northeastern University in 2021. If you are interested in collaborating with me or want to have a chat, always feel free to contact me through E-mail or Wechat (s1mple_21_).
My research focuses on Image Inverse Problem, such as super-resolution, restoration, and radar imaging.
