Yunhui Guo

I am an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science in the University of Texas at Dallas. I was a postdoc at UC Berkeley/ICSI working with Prof. Stella Yu. Previously, I completed my PhD at the University of California San Diego advised by Prof. Tajana Rosing. During my PhD, I had the pleasure to spent time at Qualcomm AI research and IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center.

Research

My research lies at the intersection of machine learning and computer vision. In particular, I am interested in how to efficiently and reliably leverage the data we have. My current research focused on transfer learning, continual learning, few-shot learning, multi-task learning and geometrical learning with applications in IoT, mobile computing and autonomous driving. My goal is to design data-efficient machine learning algorithms with nice properties for these applications.
