Maggie (Xinyue) Hao

I am currently a third-year PhD student in the Centre for Doctoral Training in Robotics & Autonomous Systems (CDT RAS) at the University of Edinburgh. I am supervised by Laura Sevilla and Bob Fisher, and I also work closely with Shreyank N Gowda and Anurag Arnab. Prior to my PhD, I completed my Master’s degree at the University of Edinburgh and received my Bachelor’s degree from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT). I also worked as an Algorithm Intern at ByteDance and an Algorithm Engineer at Alibaba before.

My research focuses on improving efficiency in visual tasks, especially video understanding.
