Brief
Bio
I am a
fourth year Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Harvard University.
My
advisor is Prof. Radhika
Nagpal, and I am affiliated with SSR group and Harvard's Wyss Institute for Bio-Inspired Engineering. Before coming
here, I was a master’s student working at Stanford Artificial
Intelligence Lab (with Prof. Andrew Ng).
Even before that, I did my undergraduate in Computer Science at
National Taiwan University (with Profs. Yi-Ping Hung and Chu-Song
Chen). 2006 summer, I
was a research intern in Intel Research, working with Dr. Georgios
Theocharous and Prof. Shie Mannor.
