Profile
Hello, I am a PhD candidate doing computer vision research in IRIS with Prof. Ram Nevatia, Viterbi School of Engineering, University of Southern California. I plan to finish my PhD study in Aug 2008. Currently looking for a job in postdoc research or industrial R&D.

Research Interests
  • Computer Vision for human computer interaction
  • Machine learning and artificial intelligence
Software & Libraries

Those are software and development libraries I often used:
  • OpenCV: an open source computer vision library developed by Intel.
  • VXL: a collection of open source C++ libraries for Computer Vision.
Projects

This is a software project I started to practice C# language:
  • SharpView.Net : an image viewer with interface similar to ACDSee.
