About me
Personal Info
Welcome to my homepage! My name is Lingwei Zhu (朱 令緯). I am now a Postdoc with Martha White at the University of Alberta. I obtained my PhD with the Best Student Honor at Nara Institute of Science and Technology (NAIST) under Takamitsu Matsubara.
My research interest lies in applications of reinforcement learning and unsupervised learning. The applications include realizing autonomous control of large-scale systems (industrial processes and robotics); developing automated biomedical systems (cancers, brain activity cognition).
