Yanzhou Pan
Hello! My name is Yanzhou Pan. I'm now living in Houston, USA. I received my Bachelor's degree in Wuhan University, China and I'm currently studying for my Master's degree in computer science at Rice University. Computer Science is my major and what I'm interested in. I also have many other hobbies. Hopefully, this page can help you to know more about me. I'm an outgoing guy who always like to meet new people and have new friends. If you meet me in person, you will find me a litte more handsome than the picture :)

Experience
Wuhan GEETEST Network Technology Co., Ltd. (Dec. 2018 - Jul. 2019)
Machine learning and data analysis Intern, Department of Data Security
- Cooperating with colleagues, implemented several captcha rules, including black IP discrimination and Track discrimination etc. which can be used for effective human-machine identification
- Analyzed the accuracy and authenticity of web captcha data using Pyspark and Hadoop
- Wrote data analysis reports for customers, including pattern analysis of abnormal data and corresponding processing recommendations
A Fast semi-Supervised State Key Laboratory of Software Engineering, Wuhan University (Feb. 2018 - Oct.2018)
Research Assistant, State Key Laboratory of Software Engineering, Wuhan University
- Proposed a fast similarity measure for time series, which could reduce the average running time of the clustering by about 30% without affecting the accuracy
- Introduced a semi-supervised learning method called Side-information Generation Strategy (SGS), which could further improve the clustering result by 5%, with only a small amount of manually picked side-information (Less than 10% of the total data set)
- Completed the experiments and the paper, which has been published on IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics: Systems.
Qingzhi-Unmanned Restaurant Payment System (Sep. 2016 - Jun. 2017)
University-level Entrepreneurial Project, Wuhan University
- • Developed the image recognition function, which is based on CNN (Convolutional Neural Network)
- Completed the data collection and the preliminary development of the system, which was more than 95% accurate in identifying everyday dishes
- Won the second prize in the Third “Internet plus” Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition (Wuhan University Division, China)
