Zhen Yang

in Baltimore, 2013

Currently I am a PhD candidate in the Image Analysis and Communications Lab (IACL) at Electrical and Computer Engineering, Johns Hopkins University. My advisor is Dr. Jerry L. Prince.

My research interests include medical image analysis, computer vision and machine learning, especially in the area of medical image segmentation, registration, statistical shape models, learning based disease diagnosis and clinical score prediction. I'm also interested in 3D scanning techniques, multi-view scan registration and camera calibration.
