Biography
Currently, I'm an assistant professor at ShanghaiTech University (ShanghaiTech). Prior to that, I got Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) in 2021. Previously, I received M.Sc. with Merit from Department of Computing, Imperial College London in 2016, and M.Eng. from USTC in 2015.
My research interests include machine learning, deep learning, and optimization methods with applications in EDA, especially design space exploration and computational lithography.
