Changan Chen 陈昌安

I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at UT Austin advised by Prof. Kristen Grauman. I am also a visiting researcher at Facebook AI Research. My broad interests are computer vision, machine learning and robotics. Currently, I'm working on embodied learning and audio-visual learning.

Previously, I spent a wonderful year working with Prof. Greg Mori on sports video analysis and efficient deep learning, eight months working with Prof. Alexandre Alahi on social navigation in crowds, and eight months working with Prof. Manolis Savva on relational graph reasoning for navigation.

My first name is pronounced as /tʃæn'æn/ with the g being silent.
