Summary I am a data analyst/software engineer/reseacher working on single cell data research area

Work

  • 2024.05 - Present
    Bioinformatics Data Analyst
    Huntsman Cancer Institute
    Developed a full-stack web application for visualizing and analyzing single-cell RNA sequencing data (scRNA-seq) using JavaScript-based technologies (React JS, Node JS, HDF5, Git, Yarn, Linux, Docker). Analyzed single-cell data to identify significant of genes expression differences across cell types based on responses and time point; performed two-way ANOVA to find the interactive term. Implementing semi-supervised learning (Leiden) to analyze scRNA-seq data to track transcriptional state shifts, expansions, emerging, and disappearing states in patient tumor samples over time and response to therapy.
    • web development, single cell data analyst
  • 2022.04 - 2023.06
    Software Engineer
    Rakuten Mobile Corp
    Designed and developed an auto-monitoring dashboard for real-time Linux server health management,particularly for 4G and 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) data analysis, to improve monitoring, enhance network performance, and facilitate informed decision-making. This includes: Designed an automated system to log in, collect health data, and capture resources, users, and connectivity every 4 hours. Analyzed and visualized data on a Streamlit dashboard. Summarized weekly KPIs for cluster status and connectivity, and identified anomalies for troubleshooting.
    • Dashboard report
    • data visualization
  • 2021.04 - 2022.03

    Tokyo, Japan

    Research Assistant
    Developed computer vision-based student engagement detection in online classes. Performed face detection using MTCNN and emotion detection using Mini–Xception. Analyzed the final results and created a dashboard called MOEMO to visualized the result in more interactive way. Generated after-class report that report comprehensively details students’ affective states, concentration, engagement, and intervention time for each student.

Projects

  • Kidney Pathology Image segmentation
    Performing kidney pathology image segmentation to segment chronic kidney disease (CKD) glands in patch images by training and testing multiple baseline CNN models (UNet, Attention UNet, RegNet, DynUNet) and Transformer models (UNetR, Swin UNetR) using the MONAI (Medical Open Network for AI) network architecture. Evaluate the accuracy of network combinations (CNN and Transformer) against the baseline models.
  • Image Search In Context with Contrastive Language–Image Features
    Developed a web-based noun learning system utilizing the CLIP (Contrastive Language–Image Pre-training) model for image recommendations, Azure speech to text, translation APIs for user voice input and translation, leveraging Streamlit for a user interface.
  • Surveillance network locates individuals using computer vision
    Developed a real-time system that can search a person by their face/ attribute in multiple cameras. Collected and preprocessed the real data from the university surveillance cameras. Implemented face detection using MTCNN, and pedestrian detection using YOLO, face cluster by K-mean.
  • Chat Agent
    Using pre-trained Large Language Models from Hugging Face API to create a chat conversation. The chat agent tokenizes the text input, generate the embedding output, then, decode the embedding vector to create the text output.
  • Customer Intent Classification
    Train LSTM (using Tensorflow), BERT (using PyTorch) models to classify the customer's intentions on the BANKING77 dataset (13,083 customer questions, 77 classes of intention). Achieve 85% and 91.46% sequentially accuracy on test set.
  • Encoder Enhancement For Compressive Sensing
    Designed a new encoder method for compressive sensing images by exploring the Walsh Hadamard matrix structure, resulting in a 19% reduction in file size and enhancing compression image quality. Proposed a Triangle Quantization method for compression rate control that allows the system to adjust the image quality upon the internet bandwidth.
  • Self-Drive Taxi Simulation
    Train and test an agent to pick up passengers and drop them at their destination in the fastest way possible using Reinforcement Learning (Q-learning/SARSA). Simulate the environment using Gymnasium library.
