About me
Hi, I am a first year Computer Science Master student at the University of California - San Diego. I’m currently a research assistant at Prof. Zhiting Hu’s lab, working on the Concept Learning project.
I recieved my bachelor’s degree from the University of Hong Kong. Previously I worked on the COVID-19 analysis & Disease Prevention System project under the supervision of Prof. Eric Schuldenfrei and Prof. Hayden Kwok-Hay So. I also spend a summer worked with Prof. Hengshuang Zhao on a 3D Scene Reconstruction and Segmentation project.
My research interests include Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Learning Theory. In addition, I have a strong passion for photography, welcome to visit my Photo Gallery.
I’m looking for 2025 summer internship opportunities in the Quantitative Anlysis / Machine Learning fields. Feel free to contact me if you have any relevant opportunities or suggestions.
