Xuan Qi 齐轩

I am a Ph.D. student at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) and the University of Genoa, working with the AI for Good (AIGO) research group under the supervision of Prof. Vittorio Murino. My research interests include generative modeling, representation geometry, and transfer learning, centered on the understanding, transfer, and control of learned representations.
