Assistant Professor

Shanghai Innovation Institute

I'm an assistant professor at Shanghai Innovation Institute. My research interests include distributed machine learning system and machine learning compiler. I'm serving as Apache Software Foundation Member and member of Apache TVM Program Management Committee (PMC). My work focuses on developing efficient compilation and optimization techniques for machine learning systems, accelerating the development and deployment of emerging models on emerging platforms.

I got my Ph.D. degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, majored in Computer Science. I was a member of APEX Lab, advised by Prof. Weinan Zhang and Prof. Yong Yu, closely collaborating with Tianqi Chen via open-source community.

Latest Updates

I'm looking for self-motivated Ph.D. students who like coding and have interests in(distributed) machine learning system and AI infrastructure. Prospective students should have strong programming skills and genuine passion for systems research. Feel free to contact me via email with your CV and research interests if you are interested.
