Biography

I am a first-year M.S. student at Institute of Media, Information, and Network (min), Shanghai Jiao Tong University, advised by Prof. Hongkai Xiong and Prof. Wenrui Dai. I received my bachelor’s degree in Electronic Science and Technology from SJTU.

I have a keen interest in machine learning and interpretable artificial intelligence. My goal is to identify the fundamental optimization goal of deep learning and construct interpretable machine learning systems through mathematical derivations. Specifically, I aim to establish objective metrics to measure model performance and mathematically deduce the factors that contribute to model performance, guiding the design of neural network architectures.

Research Experience

 
 
 
 
 
Institute of Media, Information and Network (min), SJTU
Machine Learning and Computer Vision Intern and Master’s Student
November 2022 – Present Shanghai, China

Advised by Prof. Hongkai Xiong and Prof. Wenrui Dai, my researches include:

  • Proposed ICPNet, a unified model capable of representing networks with arbitrary depths with fixed-point iteration layers and any activation function with Chebyshev polynomials, and verified its great properties. (submission for ECCV 2024)
  • Validated the high similarity properties of parameter matrices in LoRa, thereby constructed low-rank decomposition which reduced the required parameter quantity for fine-tuning as well as enhanced performance.
