Biography

Hello! My name is Hangzhi Guo (郭杭之 | Birkhoff). I am an incoming Ph.D. student at Penn State Uniersity. Previously, I studied at a Wenzhou-Kean University majoring in Computer Science.

I am dedicated to using technology to empower individuals. Specifically, I am facinated with combining Machine Learning and Human-Computer Interaction to assist assist vulnerable groups. In the summer of 2019, under the supervision of Dr. Amulya Yadav at Pennsylvania State University, I was working on predicting agricultural production prices to improve the lives of farmers. This project was featured in News Medical Life Sciences and Penn State News. At Wenzhou-Kean University, I developed applications for children with autism to learn elementary mathematical skills.

I maintain two websites for blogging. This site contains several posts that I am obsessed with sharing my own thoughts and information among the topics. I also write blogs for recording my notes on classical textbooks, research papers and interesting topics on the Birkhoff Tech Blog. I write blogs to imitate the “teachers teaching information to students” cycle because I strongly believe that teaching and communicating is the most successful approach to learning. I also hope you can be helped by some of my shared posts.

Feel free to drop me an email if you are interested in my work.
