Zhanqi Zhang

Zhanqi Zhang is a Ph.D. student in computer science at the University of California San Diego (UCSD), supported by the HDSI Ph.D. Fellowship. She is co-advised by Mikio Aoi and Gal Mishne. Previously, she studied computer science and electrical engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. Zhang is broadly interested in how machine and biological intelligence complement each other to push forward the discoveries of the brain. Specifically, she is currently interested in how human behavior reflects complex neural and physiological processes such as learning, perception and decision-making in the brain. Using tools in machine learning, computational neuroscience, optimization and signal processing, she attempts to construct unsupervised animal and human action recognition and behavior classification models to understand disorders in clinical settings.
