Sooyoung Jeon

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Boston University, advised by Prof. Wei-Lun (Harry) Chao.

My research interests lie in computer vision and machine learning, with a primary focus on applications in robotics.

Previously, I received my M.S. and B.S. degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from The Ohio State University.
