I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Electrical
Engineering at the University of
Washington.
I work with Eve Riskin
and Richard Ladner on
the MobileASL
project. I am working on the Rate-Distortion-Complexity (R-D-C) analysis of
H.264 encoder and looking at approaches for selecting optimal encoding
parameters for R-D-C optimization. My research interests includes video coding
and perceptual audio coding.
I obtained my Masters in Electrical Engineering at
New Mexico State University in 2005. At NMSU, I worked with
Charles Creusere for developing a scalable perceptual metric for
evaluating audio quality. I also worked with Raphael Lyman for developing an
Autoconfigurable receiver. Prior to grad school, I worked at
Wipro Technologies in their Multimedia and DSP group porting different
audio codecs and post processing algorithms to an embedded platform. I have
interned in Nvidia in Summer
2005 and
Thomson Corporate Research in Summer 2007.
