Jim C. Huang Ph.D. Candidate Probabilistic and Statistical Inference Group Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Toronto |
I've moved to Microsoft Research in Redmond, WA. You will soon be re-directed to my new webpage.
I'm a Ph.D. student in the Probabilistic and Statistical Inference group with Brendan Frey. I am also affiliated with the Communications, Machine Learning and Computational Biology groups at the University of Toronto. I am interested in novel statistical machine learning algorithms and frameworks, as well as their applications to problems in computational systems biology and information retrieval.
