• 😄 I am a Ph.D. Candidate and a Research Assistant in the Innovatory for Cells and Neural Machines (ICAN) lab and Dependable Computing Systems Laboratory (DCSL) at Purdue University, advised by Prof. Somali Chaterji and Prof. Saurabh Bagchi. I also work closely with Prof. Yin Li from the University of Wisconsin-Madison on my projects. My research interests include optimizing performance and energy consumption for Machine Learning (ML) systems on small devices. Recently, I worked on several research projects that target optimizing the performance and energy efficiency of two technologies: computer vision on embedded/mobile GPUs and Low-power Internet of Things (IoT) networks. I love to use my knowledge to solve real-world problems. Specifically, I enjoy researching, developing, and deploying cutting-edge intelligent systems around us. I aim to optimize intelligent computer systems' latency/accuracy/energy performance and lead to a sustainable environment.
• 🔭 I’m looking for an internship position to develop and deploy adaptive and innovative Machine Learning systems in real-world applications.
