Jie Lin

Vancouver, BC, Canada

I am an M.Sc. student in Computer Science at the University of British Columbia, advised by Prof. Xin Tang. My research interests are in applied machine learning, with a focus on AI for healthcare and biological applications, and on building models that are interpretable and explainable.

Before UBC, I completed my undergraduate studies in Information Management (minor in Computer Science and Information Engineering) at National Taiwan University, where I was involved in several research labs:

Project research assistant in the Speech Processing and Machine Learning Lab, advised by Prof. Hung-yi Lee, working on Taiwan-localized speech LLMs
Mitacs Globalink research intern at the University of Alberta, working with Prof. Russell Greiner and Prof. Sunil Kalmady Vasu on deep survival prediction for cardiovascular patients
Undergraduate research student in the Pervasive and Autonomous Intelligence Lab, advised by Prof. Fang-Jing Wu, working on indoor positioning from ambient light sensing
Summer research student in the Bio-ASP Lab at the Institute of Information Science, Academia Sinica, working with Dr. Yu Tsao on ECG super-resolution using deep learning

On the industry side, I was an AI R&D intern at Tomofun, a world leading pet technology startup, where I worked on AI algorithm and application related research and applied it to products.
