Yezhou primary research focus is in Computer Vision and Robot Vision, especially exploring visual primitives in interpreting peoples' actions and the scene's geometry from visual input, grounding them by natural language as well as high-level reasoning over the primitives for intelligent systems. His research mainly focused on solutions to visual learning, which significantly reduces the time to program intelligent agents. Dr. Yang received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science from University of Maryland at College Park in 2013 and 2015 respectively. Prior to that, he obtained a B.Eng. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Zhejiang University, China. Dr. Yang is a recipient of NSF CAREER award in 2018 and the Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship in 2011.
