Shoou-I Yu, 余守壹

I am currently a Research Scientist at Reality Labs Research Pittsburgh, Meta, led by Yaser Sheikh. I received my Ph.D. under the supervision of Alexander Hauptmann from the Language Technologies Institute, School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University in 2016. During my undergrad I was advised by Jane Yung-jen Hsu. My research interests include (deep) multi-object tracking and large-scale video retrieval or analysis in general. Some of my more interesting YouTube videos: CVPR 13 demo video, deep features for multi-object tracking, and real-world gradient descent with momentum.

I like playing volleyball (No. 59) and watching baseball: Ichiro Suzuki, Shohei Ohtani (500k views!). I also try to travel often: glaciers! orcas! bears! jumping salmon! lava!
