Provided recommendation on how to improve the booking rate based on the discovered user patterns. • Online Shopping with Responsive Web Design Summer 2014 Developed an online shopping website that leveraged a few modern techniques, such as AJAX, jQuery, jQuery Mobile and CodeIgniter to enhance the user experience. • Weenix Kernel Implementation Summer 2014 Implemented the essential components for a kernel of a UNIX-like operating system, including process management, file system and memory management. • Next Generation Climate Architecture, NGCA Spring 2014 Tackled the complex software architecture by investigating its underlying energy consumption, memory usage and latency of execution. Performed reverse engineering and architectural recovery on the NGCA as a key to future evolution. • University Map Querying and Locating Using Oracle Spatial Database Spring 2014 Developed a Java application that queried a university map based on window, nearest neighbors, with-in distance and so on. • WheelBot Using ReMod3D for Intelligent Map Learning and Route Planning Fall 2013 Wrote C++ programs that simulated a robot exploring a 3D world through object searching, route planning and map learning using DFS and A* algorithms. Research Projects in Academia Research Center for Information Technology Innovation, Academia Sinica Advisor: Dr. Yen-Yu Lin • Per-cluster Ensemble Kernel Learning for Multi-modal Image Clustering with Group-dependent Feature Selection IEEE TMM, 2014 Developed an algorithm for cross-space feature selection to characterize distinct multi-modal data precisely with their discriminant features, where multiple kernel learning (MKL) was leveraged. Generalized the optimization framework to semi-supervised learning that supported pairwise constraints. • Anomalous Event Detection with Moving Camera Reconstructed the 3D model for road scenes based on optical flow and focus of expansion (FOE), coupled with kernel density estimation (KDE), so that abnormal flows can be retrieved and further analyzed. Undergraduate Research Projects Department of Electrical Engineering, Yuan Ze University Advisor: Prof. Duan-Yu Chen • Intelligent Face-based Mobile Images Categorization JISE, 2013 Gender Recognition System and App. on Portable Device CCL Technical Journal, 2011 Resource-limited Intelligent Photo Management on Mobile Platforms IEEE ICMLC, 2011 Developed a gender recognition system, where features were retrieved efficiently by only partiallydecoding the images for resource-limited platforms. Implemented an Android app for images categorization that featured people counting and gender recognition. Undergraduate Course Projects • Lane Detection Warning System Spring 2011 Reconstructed the road lanes on images captured by a vehicle-mounted camera based on Radon Transform and k-means clustering. • Content-based Image Retrieval Spring 2010 Developed an image query system, where color-based (e.g., RGB, HSV) and gradient-based (e.g., edge, SIFT) image descriptors were leveraged to tackle diverse scenes and objects.
