Hi I'm CS undergrad with 1 year industry experience, 1+ years of lab intern experience (machine learning, computational biology). I'm trying to apply at phD programs. I love machine learning but during my internship, I found I'm not that really interested in computational biology as I first thought and I want to search labs where I can research deep learning and trading system such as stock recommendation system, trading agent using RL, stock forecasting with various deep models, interpreting chart etc... I've been told at ML courses RL and machine learning system has been successful at these fields but I couldn't find many papers or labs doing deep learning and financial trading. Is there any university or labs with these research topic? I want to study with researchers with same interest and look for labs, but don't know where to start

Hi I am CSE major interested in machine learning. I graduated from university in asia in 2016(undergrad rank 40 in world), and worked in a startup as CTO(co-founder). about a year of working out, I found that I really want to study more about machine learning. Can you guys give me some advice on my current status? I have no information what school I'm eligible for. overall GPA (3.5/4.0) but GPA after 2 years of military service is 3.8/4.0 (which consists large portion on my undergrad credits, don't know this can appeal, but I worked hard to follow up after discontinuity of studying career. I know this GPA is not that high though. ) TOEFL 110 2 machine learning related paper (not published / undergrad level paper) : 1 computer vision related, 1 bio-informatics about 1 years of Industry experience (1 project with machine learning company : voice recognition) : didn't do research about models but I worked as leading developer. but it gave me insights about A.I. industry, how ML pipeline is managed etc. and planning for an internship at Vision or NLP labs for research experience about 2 year from now on. Hoping my paper get accepted. Though I currently don't have any good papers, I have strong interest in boosting multiple models and GAN related ideas. hoping I can expand these thoughts and experiment on them. I'm thinking maximum 2 years research internship until I get accepted at any CS PhD programs in US. After Discussing with my school friends, I know my application is not that good but willing to fill the holes. Please give me some advice on what kind of program I'm eligible for. Thank you in advance
