I am currently a doctoral student in Graduate School of Data Science at KAIST in Korea, supervised by Prof. Uichin Lee in KAIST ICLab. I have finished the master degree in the same lab. My bachelor degree is from Beijing Institute of Technology.
I am currently interested in machine learning for mobile affective computing.
Feel free to drop me an email (panyu@kse.kaist.ac.kr) if you have any question!
