Jiayun (Peter) Wang
Postdoc, California Institute of Technology | peterw at caltech dot edu

I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Computing + Mathematical Sciences Department at the California Institute of Technology, working with Anima Anandkumar. I am also working with Gianmarco Pinton and Lihong Wang on applying physics-aware ML for medical imaging. Prior to joining Caltech, I completed my Ph.D. in Vision Science and Berkeley AI Research (BAIR) at UC Berkeley, where I worked with Stella Yu on fundamental machine learning and computer vision models and Meng Lin on applying them to healthcare.
Research Interest: My research lies at the intersection of machine learning, computer vision and AI for healthcare. My research highlights:
- Minimally Supervised ML. Self-supervised learning from unlabeled data for recognition & detection (TPAMI’21) and for geometry (ECCV’24).
- Efficient AI Algorithms. AI models as a duality to the data. Models can be made efficient if they are aware of data structures, such as orthogonality (CVPR’20) and recurrence (WACV’23).
- AI for Health. Minimally supervised ML for enhanced clinical effectiveness Applications include computational imaging for ultrasound (arXiv’25) and assistive diagnosis (MICCAI’24).
