Haotian Wu

Hello! This is Haotian Wu. I am now a postdoctoral research associate at the INFORMED AI Hub, working in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Imperial College London, under the supervision from Prof. Pier Luigi Dragotti and Prof. Deniz Gunduz.

Previously, I obtained my PhD in Imperial College London, supervised by Prof. Deniz Gunduz and Prof. Krystian Mikolajczyk. I got my Bachelor and Master degree in Electrical Engineering at Zhejiang University. I was also awarded Master Degree with distinction in Control Systems at Imperial College London in 2018, supervised by Prof. Richard Vinter and Prof. Alessandro Astolfi.

I'm interested in information theoritcal machine learning, with application in communication, control, and computer vision.
