Welcome to my page! I am a MIDAS Data Science Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Michigan, working with with Anhong Guo. Recently, I received my PhD and worked as a Research Engineer at Singapore Management University, under the supervision of Kotaro Hara.
I received my Master of Science degree from National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan. There, I was working with Hao-chuan Wang (currently at the University of California, Davis) and Chien Wen (Tina) Yuan (currently at National Taiwan Normal University). Before that, I received my Bachelor's in Information Technology and Systems degree from Monash University, Malaysia.
I welcome everyone who has the same research interest with me to discuss and collaborate of possible future works. :)
Research Summary
Research Summary
The overarching goal of my research is to create methods and tools that are more time- and cost-effective in making video content more accessible for people with visual impairments. I leverage the concept of mixed-ability collaboration, computer vision, and natural language process techniques to make this happens. I explore and create methods and tools to support novices to write good quality Audio Descriptions (AD) -- a verbal explanation of visual events that are not audible for blind and low-vision people.
Ultimately, I want to make all videos accessible to blind and low-vision people so they can enjoy, learn, and gain information from as many videos as sighted people.
