Zack While

I am a rising senior at Youngstown State University in Youngstown, Ohio double-majoring in Computer Science and Mathematics. After graduating, I plan to pursue a PhD in computer science so that I can teach at the university level and conduct research in machine learning. I am working with Rui Hou, Dr. Chen, and Dr. Shah on object segmentation in videos using deep learning. We are training a 3D convolutional autoencoder to view every frame of a clip and accurately identify whether each pixel is the background or main foreground object. This is much more difficult for videos in comparison to images, as the video's foreground object may move, be obscured, or noticeably change appearance over time. To get a better idea of the project and my work, check out the links below; also, feel free to email me at zwhile@student.ysu.edu if you have any further questions.
