About me
Nice to meet you here!
I am Xiaojian Xu, an enthusiastic researcher specializing in computational imaging. Currently, I am an AI Research Scientist with the Foundation AI team at GE HealthCare (GEHC), where I focus on developing large language models, foundational AI models, vision-language models, and multimodal models for medical imaging and healthcare applications.
Prior to joining GEHC, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the EECS department at the University of Michigan (UMich) from 2022 to 2024, luckily working under the guidance of Prof. Jeffrey Fessler. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2022 from Washington University in St. Louis (WashU), where I had the privilege of working with Prof. Ulugbek Kamilov in the Computational Imaging Group (CIG) in the Computational Imaging Group (CIG). Before my time at WashU, I completed my B.E. in Communication and Information Engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) in 2014. I was admitted to the graduate program as an exam-exempt student and later earned my M.E. in Communication and Information Systems from UESTC in 2017.
My research interests span computational imaging, optimization theory, biomedical imaging, deep learning, generative AI, inverse problems, and computer vision. If you’re interested in our work, feel free to reach out!
