Yung-Hsuan (Franklin) Lai

Hello! I am a research assistant in the Vision and Learning Lab at National Taiwan University, focusing on cross-modality learning such as audio-visual learning and vision-text learning.

My academic journey began in the Communication Engineering Department at National Taiwan University, where I pursued my M.S. degree under the guidance of Professor Yu‑Chiang Frank Wang, specializing in Audio-Visual Learning. For my Master’s thesis, I tackled the challenge of weakly-supervised Audio-Visual Video Parsing. My method involves leveraging large-scale contrastively pre-trained models to generate reliable pseudo labels, which outperformed existing methods in terms of effectiveness. Prior to my postgraduate studies, I obtained a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from National Taiwan University.
