I am a Research Fellow at NUS, working with Prof Angela Yao. Previously, I obtained my PhD at the Department of Computer Science, National University of Singapore (NUS), supervised by Prof. Tat-Seng Chua and closely collaborated with Prof. Angela Yao . From Nov. 2021 to Apr. 2022, I worked as a research intern at Sea AI Lab (SAIL) and was jointly advised by Dr. Pan Zhou and Prof. Shuicheng Yan. Prior to that, I received my M.S.Eng degree from the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences at 2018 and B.Eng. degree from Sichuan University at 2015, respectively.

I devote myself to fine-grained video understanding and its interaction with natural languages, with a special focus on VideoQA and Video Grounding. The techniques emphasize video structural representation learning, large language models, robustness and interpretability. I am looking forward to working with Research Interns/Assistants/Visiting Students. (If you are interested in my research, please contact to junbin at comp dot nus dot edu dot sg. Students with CV/NLP/MultiModal background are preferred.)
