Kevin W. Zhang

I'm a 5th year CS PhD student at the University of Maryland, College Park, working with Christopher Metzler and Jia-Bin Huang on computer vision and computational imaging. Previously, I interned at Adobe Research in SF, where I worked with Aaron Hertzmann, and completed a BA in Computer Science and Pure Mathematics at UC Berkeley, advised by Laura Waller and Michael Lustig.
