I am (currently, as of September 2020) the youngest Chinese Kaggle Grandmaster.

While at school, I focused/am focusing on topics that live in the intersection of machine learning and systems engineering. 2 I've had the honor of working with Han Zhao and Keyulu Xu on graph neural networks in the past.

Research Interests

  • Graph Neural Networks: performance, application and interpretability
  • Multimodal Machine Learning
  • Representation Learning
  • Machine Learning/Deep Learning Systems: Training and Inference DSLs, Compilers and Optimizers
  • Federated Learning
  • Object Detection and Segmentation under performance-sensitive settings (low-power, low-memory, etc.)
  • Image Retrieval

    • Currently

    I'm mainly occupied with courseworks at CMU; I'm also helping to organize an entrepreneurship/tech community based in Beijing. You are welcomed to apply by sending me an email!

    Coursework

  • 10-315 Introduction to Machine Learning
  • 15-411 Compiler Design
  • 15-312 Foundations of Programming Languages

    • Portfolio

    I'm involved in several online, computer science-related communities, including Kaggle and Codewars (real-time ranking below). My resume can be found here.
