Work History

Machine Learning Research Intern

National Oceanic And Atmospheric Administration, NOAA
06.2023 - 09.2023
  • Investigated coastal upwelling dynamics using machine learning algorithms on remote-sensing data, contributing to the understanding of global oceanic patterns.
  • Developed predictive models for coastal upwelling intensity using neural networks and state-of-art models (Transformer, ConvLSTM, U-Net, etc.)
  • Demonstrated flexibility and adaptability in response to project needs by developing and implementing custom deep learning solutions for ocean remote-sensing data.

Research Assistant

University Of Washington
02.2023 - Current
  • Set up energy measurement toolchains (both hardware setup and software apps) to support collecting end-to-end energy consumption ground truth data using the hardware power monitor.
  • Built a predictive energy estimator by assisting in benchmarking selected DNN models and applications and collecting energy-related features.
  • Built software apps for both iOS and Android to enable users to interact with deep learning CNN models
