Bio

Hello, my name is Fernando Plata. I'm an undergraduate at Carnegie Mellon University pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering and a minor in computer science. I'm currently researching convolutional neural networks to track specific movements of animals throughout various frames. This involves training a deep learning algorithm to identify certain characteristics of the images. Outside of academics, I follow a rigorous gym schedule and love playing golf during my free time.
