About Me

Hi, I'm Anderson Truong!

I'm fourth-year undergraduate studying Computer Engineering at UCLA and incoming M.S. Electrical Engineering at Stanford.

I love learning about and doing projects in a variety of different fields, particularly computer architecture, machine learning, security, and signal processing.

I am currently a Software Engineering Intern for the autonomous driving startup PlusAI, working on hardware accelerator platforms and visualization. Previously, I interned at The Aerospace Corporation, specializing in FPGA/ASIC and embedded hardware security.


At UCLA, I love tackling problems in ML/accelerator academic research. I current do research in FPGA-DNN accelerators in the VAST Lab and CGRA compilers in the PolyArch Research Group.

From 2023-2024, I worked as a graph machine learning researcher in the SRILab to accelerate Graph Neural Network algorithms for city traffic and infrastructure vulnerability analysis.

In 2022, I interned at the Human-Centered Computing and Intelligent Sensing Lab. In three months, I led an end-to-end project to develop a wearable device using computer vision for context-based localization and interaction. Through the Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP), my research project was recognized with the Best Poster Award.

From 2021 to 2022, I was a research assistant in The Ozcan Research Group. I supported the fabrication of nano-scale metasurface-based optical neural networks as imaging devices for light-speed computer vision tasks. Our team presented this work and poster during HHMI Day at UCLA.
