MCL has a new PhD student, Wenchao Zheng, in Spring 2016. Let’s give him a warm welcome!

He received the B.S. degree from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China in 2014. We had a briefly interview with him.

1. Could you briefly introduce yourself? (Previous research experience, project experience, research interest and expertise)

Before coming to USC, I got my B.S. degree from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China in 2014. I previously was a Ph.D. student in EE-Electrophysics until December 2014 when I found myself more interested in Computer Vision and Machine Learning. I get the precious opportunity to do research in this field at MCL thanks to Prof. Kuo.

2. What’s your first impression of USC and MCL?

My first impression on MCL is that it is a very big group, I was wondering how Prof. Kuo could have so much energy to take care of every student. It turns out that my thought was unnecessary. Prof. Kuo is a very energetic and active researcher on the frontier. He knows a lot and is very experienced. He exerts his lifelong knowledge to help his students in every way that a student can be helped. I feel lucky to be a member at MCL.

3. What’s your future expectation for MCL?
