Bo Wu, an AI Researcher at MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab in Cambridge, MA.
My research interests are computer vision, natural language processing, and deep learning, which focus on visual, language, or behavior understanding, forecasting, and reasoning.
I was a Research Scientist at Columbia University, fortunately worked with Prof. Shih-Fu Chang.
I fortunately worked with Dr. Tao Mei at MSRA, Prof. Wen-Huang Cheng at Academia Sinica, etc.
I have several wonderful visiting research and start-up experiences at Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA), Academia Sinica, JD AI Research, etc.
I received my Ph.D. at Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ICT, CAS), fortunately advised by Prof. Jintao Li, and worked in the group of Prof. Yongdong Zhang.
I am serving (or served) as an Chair of ICMR Repository, CVPR MMFM 2024, Area Chair of ACM Multimedia, a Senior Program Committee (SPC) member of AAAI/IJCAI, and a Program Committee Board (PCB) member of IJCAI.
I am looking for students to work on cutting-edge vision and language projects. Please send me your CV if interested.
