Mingyu Yang

I am a fourth year PhD student in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at University of Michigan, supervised by Prof. Hun-Seok Kim. I am working on Machine Learning and Signal Processing.

Before my PhD, I achieved my M.S degree at University of Michigan, majored in Signal & Image Processing and Machine Learning (SIPML). I did my B.S degree from Beijing University of Technology (BJUT) and University College Dublin (UCD), Ireland.
