Guanghan Ning

I obtained a Ph.D. degree from Mizzou, under Prof. Henry He. Before the end of 2022, I enjoyed research on vision & deep learning, loved participating competitions and challenges. My first popular project was ROLO for object tracking; another project worth mentioning, called LightTrack, ranked 1st place on PoseTrack Challenge.

Since the beginning of 2023, I have switched my focus to developing foundation models, especially Code LLMs. As a believer in singularity, I am dedicated to contributing my limited part. In my spare time, I am also a blogger writing articles about AGI.
