I am an associate professor at the CSE department of UCSD, working with awesome people at the Center for Visual Computing. I combine classical visual computing algorithms and modern data-driven methods and design related programming languages and systems. I did a 2-year postdoc with Jonathan Ragan-Kelley at both MIT CSAIL and UC Berkeley. I did my Ph.D. in the computer graphics group at MIT CSAIL, advised by Frédo Durand. I received my B.S. and M.S. degrees in computer science and information engineering from National Taiwan University in 2011 and 2013, respectively, where I worked with Yung-Yu Chuang at the Communication and Multimedia Lab.

As one can see above, my work has some overlap with what the mainstream would call "Artificial Intelligence". I, however, do not consider my research area to be under the umbrella of Artificial Intelligence, nor do I particularly care about its development.
