Tianfu Wu
Biography
Tianfu Wu is an associate professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at NC State University. He is currently the PI of the laboratory of interpretable Visual Modeling, Computing and Learning (iVMCL). He received his Ph.D. in statistics from UCLA under the supervision by Prof. Song-Chun Zhu. His research focuses on computer vision, often motivated by the task of building explainable and improvable visual Turing test and robot autonomy through life-long communicative learning. To accomplish his research goals, he is interested in pursuing a unified framework for machines to ALTER (Ask, Learn, Test, Explain and Refine) recursively in a principled way.
