About

I’m currently a second year master student at University of California, San Diego. I study Machine Learning and Data Science in ECE department. Previously, I graduated from New York University Shanghai with honors in Data Science. I also received BS in Honors Mathematics from NYUSH and was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Gerard Ben Arous.

I love photography, you can find some of my photos in this website.

Melodic Phrase Segmentation By Deep Neural Networks

We explore and adapt various neural network architectures to see if they can be generalized to work with the symbolic representation of music and produce satisfactory melodic phrase segmentation.
