My Profile
Zijie Fang

Master Student
Tsinghua University

I am currently working towards a Master's degree (GPA: 3.91/4.0, rank: 4/61) in Computer Technology at Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School, Tsinghua University (THU) since 2022.09, supervised by Prof. Zhi Wang and co-supervised by Prof. Yongbing Zhang from Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen).

Before that, I received my BS degree in Software Engineering (GPA: 4.408/5.0, rank: 1/161) from Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology (NUIST) in 2022.

I am currently working on computational pathology, with a particular focus on weakly-supervised semantic segmentation and multiple instance learning.

I will join Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) as a PhD student in BIEN (SCC) from 2025 Fall!

Winned Competitions

WSSS4LUAD
WSSS4LUAD @ ISICDM 2021
3rd Place (Bonus Winner)

The participants are required to develop machine learning algorithms where only image-level annotations are given for algorithm training. And pixel-level ground truth is utilized for validation and testing.

LEOPARD
LEOPARD @ MICCAI 2024
3rd Place (Bonus Winner)

The goal of this challenge is to yield top-performance deep learning solutions to predict the time to biochemical recurrence from H&E-stained histopathological tissue sections, i.e. based on morphological features.
