ABOUT ME

I obtained my BS degree in 2004 and defended my PhD dissertation in 2008, both in National Taiwan University. My research interests include image/video processing, computer vision, and multimedia hardware architecture.

In Nov 2010, I join Lytro, Inc. My (dated) Curriculum Vitae is available here.
