Biography

I am a third-year Ph.D. student in the Vision and Learning Lab at University of California, Merced, under the supervision of Prof. Ming-Hsuan Yang.
Before coming to UC Merced, I received my M.S. degree in Computer Science at National Taiwan University in 2019, supervised by Prof. Ming Ouhyoung and Prof. Yung-Yu Chuang. I received my B.S. degree in Computer Science at National Taiwan University in 2017.
My research interests lie in computer vision, with a focus on computational photography.
