Who this advisor fits / 什么情况下适合你
- You want ML tied to real data and deployable problems (signal: computer vision · machine learning).
- Industry research or startup/translation paths appeal to you (meaningful share in public outcomes).
- Strong applicants should bring publishable computer vision or multimodal/video ML, plus evidence they can build systems that matter in the real world: video, embodied AI, computational photography, so
- 你想把 ML 接到真实数据与落地问题（当前信号：computer vision · machine learning）。
- 工业研究或创业/转化路径对你有吸引力（公开去向里占比不低）。
- 强申请者应提交具有发表潜力的 computer vision 或多模态/视频 ML 证据，并展示能够构建对现实世界有意义系统的能力，具体包括视频、具身智能、computational photography、社会计算或computational journalism。
What to watch for / 什么情况下要慎重
- You want pure theory ML with little domain data or cross-disciplinary collaboration.
- Faculty-only is your sole goal and you want zero industry/translation exposure.
- 你要的是纯理论 ML、几乎不碰领域数据或跨学科合作。
- 你把「教职为唯一目标」且完全不想碰工业/转化网络。
