I am a research assistant at Vision & Learning Lab at National Taiwan University (NTU), supervised by Prof. Yu-Chiang Frank Wang and Prof. Shao-Hua Sun. I am particularly interested in 3D Computer Vision, Neural Rendering and Robotics. My recent research focuses on learning to assemble objects with a robot.

I received my Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) in 2021, with the overall GPA: 4.23/4.3 and class rank 1/102. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about me, please don't hesitate to contact me and see my [CV].

I am actively seeking M.S./Ph.D. positions starting in Fall 2023.

Side Projects

	Parallel Low-Poly Image Processing Implemented low-poly image processing pipelines in C++. Used CUDA library for parallelization to achieve 20x speedup compared to sequential version on single-thread Intel Xeon CPU.
	Dart Score Solver Estimated dart scores from a dart images input using traditional image processing techniques (i.e. color & morphological processing). It is implemented in MATLAB.
	AniBall An exciting party game featured with adorable spherical animals and splendid particle effects. It is built in Unity.
	Image in Audio Steganography Developed a new method on concealing an image within a non-secret audio source. It is implemented in MATLAB.
	Real-Time Face Recognition Application An application supporting real‑time face recognition in CPU, deployed on webcam of a laptop. It is built in OpenCV and Keras.
