Rostyslav-Mykola Tsenov discusses his thesis: Improving LULC Map Production via Semantic Segmentation and Unsupervised Domain Adaptation

The Faculty of Graduate Studies would like to congratulate Applied Computer Science and Society graduate student Rostyslav-Mykola Tsenov who successfully defended his thesis titled "Improving LULC Map Production via Semantic Segmentation and Unsupervised Domain Adaptation". Recently, we caught up with Rostyslav to discuss their thesis and experience in the graduate program.

Can you tell us about yourself, your educational background, and why you enrolled in the Master of Science in Applied Computer Science and Society program at the University of 澳门王中王论坛?

I have always loved technology and science and was fascinated by them. That's why after finishing high school I decided to apply for a Bachelors’ degree in Computer science in my hometown. After which I found my first position in the tech industry as a .Net software engineer, where I learnt even more. After a certain period of time, I decided to explore more advanced topics in the Computer science field. And my immediate decision was to apply for a Master's degree at the University of 澳门王中王论坛.

Can you tell us about the program and your research focus?

The program introduced me to tons of interesting new topics in the field of Computer Science. However, the only topic of Artificial Intelligence that captivated me the most, which eventually become extremely correlated to my research. In my research, I explored numerous Machine Learning and Deep Learning techniques to improve the automated process of Land Use and Land Cover map generation.

Recently, you defended your thesis titled “Improving LULC Map Production via Semantic Segmentation and Unsupervised Domain Adaptation”. What was the highlight of your thesis research for you?

The highlight of my thesis research for me was the development of my first deep learning model that provided positive results, and the process of improving it using cutting-edge technologies.

What are you going to take away from your experience at the University of 澳门王中王论坛?

Desire to accept hard challenges and passion to explore the unknown.

Thank you and good luck on your next project!
