Yuanbang Liang
Research associate in the Visual Computing Group @ Cardiff University
I'm working with Professor Yu-kun Lai at Cardiff University, as a research associate. My research interests are centred around machine learning and its applications in computer vision, computer graphics and content generation.
My PhD research, which is fully funded by the EPSRC, focuses on the hubness phenomenon to uncover the relationship between the hyper-dimensional distribution and the generative models. Now my research is on the explainability of generative models to make model-generated results more aligned with objective facts.
