Yi-Chia Chen

Welcome! I am a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Los Angeles working with Hongjing Lu in the Computational Vision and Learning Laboratory. My research focuses on uncovering the computational goals of various aspects of perception and cognition, using both behavioral and computational modeling methods. Besides my official name Yi-Chia Chen, I have also come to accept the name of Ya-Chia (means duck-nice in Chinese), since this name often receives questions, feedback, letters, and awards on my behalf.

Before coming to UCLA, I worked as a postdoc with George Alvarez in the Vision Sciences Laboratory. I did my graduate work at Yale University, working with Brian Scholl in the Perception & Cognition lab, and my undergraduate work at National Taiwan University with Su-Ling Yeh in the Perception & Attention Laboratory. Here is my CV for more details.

歡迎!我的中文名是陳怡嘉,在加州大學洛杉磯分校擔任博士後研究員,由 Hongjing Lu 教授指導,於視覺與學習模型實驗室中進行研究。我的研究主要探索知覺與認知各方面在人類生活中所展現的功能。順帶一提,除了我的本名怡嘉外,使用英語的人也叫我鴨嘉,因為拼音是世界人民共同的挑戰。

過去我曾在哈佛大學擔任博士後研究員,由 George Alvarez 教授指導,於視覺科學實驗室中進行研究。我博士畢業自耶魯大學,在知覺與認知實驗室中受 Brian Scholl 教授指導。大學時代我在國立臺灣大學 Suling Yeh 教授的知覺與注意力實驗室進行研究。詳見履歷
