Zhiwu Huang

I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) affiliated with the Vision, Learning, and Control (VLC) group in the School of Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) at the University of Southampton.

I specialize in computer vision and machine learning for artificial general intelligence. I am committed to teaching AI/machines to comprehend the world through multimodal data, enabling them to achieve animal-level, or human-level, or superhuman-level general intelligence. My current focus is on making machine learning models more capable and controllable to understand the physical world, through scaling and aligning compute, data, models, and tasks for deep learning. I am interested in exploring machine learning methodologies, including generative modeling, continual learning, and affective computing.
