Summary
Yifan Ding is a visiting PhD student at the University of Cambridge and a doctoral researcher at Linköping University and WASP, bringing eight years of experience at the intersection of computer vision, deep learning and probabilistic graphical models. His background spans both academic and applied research—previously developing learning-based depth estimation, feature descriptors and image enhancement for vSLAM/SfM in industry. He also has hands-on teaching experience in machine learning, computational statistics and advanced R programming, reflecting strength in both theory and pedagogy. Based in Norrköping, Sweden, Yifan combines a master’s in Statistics and Machine Learning with an electronics engineering foundation, enabling a practical, system-aware approach to perception problems. Colleagues find him curious and upbeat (his casual “Yo ~” GitHub bio hints at an approachable collaborator) with a knack for turning probabilistic ideas into robust CV models.
