Speaker Bio
I’m Michael Zhang, a fifth year PhD student at the University of Toronto and Vector Institute, where I am fortunate to be supervised by Jimmy Ba and supported by the NSERC CGS Fellowship.
I'm interested in improving our understanding of neural networks and developing algorithms which are theoretically motivated and work across a broad set of problems. I did my undergrad and Master's at the University of California, Berkeley, where I did robotics research in Pieter Abbeel's group. I've previously done internships at Tesla, Google Research, and LinkedIn.
