Projects
Neural Artist [website]
Designed a web application for image stylization and a platform for users to share images and write posts using Node.js, Express, and MongoDB. Used fast style transfer in Python and TensorFlow to transform uploaded user pictures into artistic images.
Persona Chatbot [website]
Developed a web application using Django for users to interact with the chatbot and define its personality. Used Transfer Learning and a Transformer model to develop a chit-chat Chatbot that shows a consistent personality in the conversation.
Cost Learning Network [paper]
Used Reinforcement Learning (PPO) in TensorFlow to learn an optimal cost matrix to improve Cost-sensitive Learning on Class Imbalanced Problem. Increased average multi-class recall by 20%, compared with the state-of-the-art Cost-sensitive Algorithm
Goodreads Rating and Read Prediction on Kaggle
Ranked 8th out of 423 people with 1.099 MSE on rating prediction, and 73.32% accuracy on read prediction. Exploited implicit feedback by maximizing the probability of relative preference prediction
Video Compression via Convolutional Neural Network [slide]
Built a streaming video codec which integrates Convolutional Neural Network Autoencoder and Hu man Coding with H.264 to achieve a higher compression ratio than using the conventional H.264 codec
