Welcome to Jean-Paul Ainam’s Homepage

Biography

Hi! I completed my Ph.D. in December 2020, at the School of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, under the supervision of Prof. Qin Ke. I received my Master’s degree from Babcock University in 2014, under the supervision of Prof. Okolie S.O and my bachelor’s degree in Cosendai Adventist University in 2012.

My current research topics include image classification, person re-identification and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Details can be found in my CV. Feel free to contact me at jpainam at gmail dot com for a job or postdoc position.
