I am currently a staff researcher/engineer and team lead at Huawei Canada Research Center in Edmonton. I obtained my PhD degree from the Department of Computing Science, University of Alberta, advised by Prof. Martin Mueller and Prof. Ryan Hayward in March 2020.

Research

I am interested in various aspects of artificial intelligence. My current research focus is mainly application-driven. Our current work are centered at using AI/ML algorithms for hardware/software optimization.
