Gihan Chanaka Jayatilaka

I am a third year Computer Science PhD student at the University of Maryalnd, College Park, USA. I am interested in Computer Vision (specifically, learning from unlabelled/sparsely-labelled data). Before graduate school, I completed a BS in Computer Engineering from the University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka in 2020 and spent an year as a graduate research assistant in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, University of Peradeniya. I have also worked as a research intern at Singapore Management University in 2019 and Futurewei Technologies, USA in 2022 Summer.
