Hey there! I'm Yujie Zhao, a first-year Ph.D. student advised by Prof. Jishen Zhao in Computer Science and Engineering Department of UC San Diego, starting in 2024. I am now aiming to build efficient systems for machine learning. Before coming to UCSD, I received my B.S. degree in Applied Physics at University of Science and Technology of China. I used to be an undergraduate research intern in EIC Lab at GaTech under the supervision of Professor Yingyan (Celine) Lin and Yang (Katie) Zhao. Previsouly I have also done research about RL theory under the supervision of Professor Huazheng Wang. I have a broad interest in combining machine learning and computer systems, with a special focus on hardware-algorithm co-design. Feel free to contact me if you share any common interests!
