This direction focuses on multimodal learning, multimodal fusion, few-shot learning, semi-supervised learning, and frontier basic research on algorithms in artificial intelligence and computer vision.
2. Deep Learning and Crop Disease and Pest Diagnosis, Master’s Research Direction
This direction focuses on the identification, monitoring, and early warning of crop diseases and pests, especially for crops such as apple, kiwifruit, and grape. The research summarizes the features and patterns of crop disease and pest recognition through image processing technologies, applies deep convolutional neural network models to crop disease and pest identification, and builds prediction models suitable for crop disease diagnosis.
The group also studies deep learning-based object detection algorithms such as SSD, Faster R‑CNN, and YOLO, and proposes neural network models that balance accuracy and real-time detection requirements for real-time monitoring and early warning of crop diseases and pests. In addition, the group conducts research on deep learning-based image segmentation algorithms.
3. Parallel Algorithms for Deep Learning, Master’s Research Direction
Parallel algorithms refer to methods and procedures that use multiple processors to jointly solve problems. The execution process first decomposes a given problem into several relatively independent subproblems, then uses multiple computers to solve them simultaneously, and finally obtains the solution to the original problem.
To address the limited parallelism in deep learning algorithms, Professor Liu’s group conducts research on algorithm parallelization for multi‑core and many‑core platforms. The research focuses on common parallel programming models such as Python, CUDA, and MPI, explicitly constructs parallel deep learning algorithms, and improves the speedup performance of deep learning parallel algorithms.
