Sherry X. Chen ( Xiaotong Chen )

Hi! I'm a PhD student in the CS Department at UC Santa Barbara, co-advised by Prof. Pradeep Sen and Prof. Misha Sra. I earned a double B.S.'s in CS as well as Applied and Computational Mathematical Sciences (ACMS) from the University of Washington.

I am broadly interested in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Human-Computer Interaction, with a primary focus on multi-modal image analysis and generation (GenAI).
