About

Hi there šŸ‘‹, welcome to my blog ML does ML (Ming Liang does Machine Learning).

About Myself

šŸ’» Iā€™m a mathematics undergraduate with 2nd major in data science at the National University of Singapore (NUS), previously enrolled in the Special Program in Science in NUS.

šŸ§  I am currently working with Emtiyaz Khan at RIKEN advanced intelligence project Approx Bayes team and I previously worked with Kevin Murphy (Google AI research) and Mahmoud Soliman (Nvidia) for Google Summer of Code to help out with his textbook PyprobML. I also previously worked on refining sample from generative models which lead to a publication at ICLR21 with Prof. Harold Soh and Adubl Fatir.

šŸ’¼ I work as a part-time trainer for Tertiary Courses teaching Tensorflow, Pytorch, Sklearn and Python. I also previously helped out in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) with some data science projects during my 2-years conscripted.

šŸ‘Æ Iā€™m looking to collaborate on machine learning research or open source projects.

šŸ“« How to reach me: You either reach me out on twitter, linkedin or email.
