Biography

Hello! I am a Research Scientist at NVIDIA Research, where I work with Prof. Song Han. My research centers on efficient generative models, with the goal of making them more scalable, practical, and accessible. I received my Ph.D. from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou), where I was advised by Prof. Yingcong Chen. Before that, I earned my Bachelor's degree from the School of Computer Science and Engineering at Beihang University. I have also been fortunate to work closely with Dr. Yukang Chen.
