Welcome to my academic homepage. I am Xu Zhang, a Ph.D. candidate at Wuhan University (WHU) @Sigma advised by Prof. Lefei Zhang and Prof. Bo Du. Before that, I obtained a M.Eng degree from Guangdong University of Technology (GDUT) advised by Dr. Huan Zhang and Prof. Nian Cai. I’m fortunate to work closely with Prof. Weisi Lin from NTU. My research interests include:

• Low-level Vision Perception: All-in-One image restoration, Image/Video quality assessment
• Multimodal Learning: Text-to-Image generation, Diffusion model

📧 I am open to collaboration and welcome inquiries from anyone interested in my research. Please feel free to concat.
