๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป About Me

I am currently a fourth-year Ph.D. student and Research Assistant at the National University of Singapore under the guidance of Professor Dong Jin Song. I earned my Bachelorโ€™s degree in Computer Science from the National University of Singapore. My research is centered on Sports Analytics, a multi-disciplinary research field, where I employ Probabilistic Reasoning, Computer Vision, and Machine Learning for in-depth sports strategy analysis. My work focuses on developing Markov Decision Process (MDP) models for tennis strategy analysis, aiding professional players in pre-match analysis with remarkable success against top competitors. Additionally, my work involves using advanced video analytics to automatically extract and understand fast, frequent, and fine-grained event sequences from sports videos, providing intricate match insights. My analytical methodologies have been applied across multiple sports, including tennis (singles and doubles), badminton, basketball, American football, etc.
