Hello, I'm
Yuchen Wang
Introduction
I am an MSCS student at Stanford University. I graduated from the University of Toronto in June 2021. I also study a little statistics and mathematics because mathematics is the foundation of statistics, and statistics is the foundation of all subjects. I found the area of machine learning fascinating and essential to the current innovation process of both the academic and industry world. Recently, I also became interested in software development. You are welcome to contact me and start a conversation if you have a similar interest.
Research
In Project X ML research competition 2020, I led the UofT team to develop this new architecture of neural ordinary differential equations which learns the dynamics of time-series with multiple predictors, and demonstrated its effectiveness on infectious disease datasets.
I presented this work with my teammate on the UofT AI Conference in January 2021. UofT has multiple news articles about our story:
- UofT news
- Department of CS News (was on the website's home page for several days!)
- UofT Celebrates
- Varsity News
Projects
Twitter Sentiment Analysis under COVID-19
I explored how the U.S. general public responds to breaking news in COVID-19 pandemic with the BERT model.
Mars game platform
I developed an open-source Android Game Platform that contains 3 games together with my classmates.
