Siyu Ma

I am currently a research assistant at the Artificial Intelligence and Visual Computing (AIVC) Lab of UCLA, where I'm fortunate to be advised by Professor Chenfanfu Jiang . Previously, I obtained my Master's in Computer Science at UC San Diego, and my B.Eng in Software Engineering at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China.
