CV | Google Scholar | DBLP
I am an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University. I received my Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Purdue University advised by Prof. Jan Allebach in 2015. I was a senior research scientist at Honda Research Institute USA from 2015 to 2020. I was a visiting researcher at Google ATAP in Spring 2015. I was a visiting computer vision researcher in Prof. Ming-Hsuan Yang's group at UC Merced in 2014. I was an imaging science intern at HP. I received my B.S. degree in the Department of Electronics Engineering from National Chiao Tung University in 2009. I was a visiting student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign working with Prof. Thomas Huang in 2009.
To Prospective Students
I am currently looking for highly motivated students who are interested in developing human-centered intelligent systems (i.e., intelligent transportation systems and assistive robotics). Please send me an email with your curriculum vitae (with representative works, research experience, and coursework) and a statement indicating why you are interested in our research. Please find our recent works on this page and the slide.
