Github: zxzStar I am on the job market for a research position in 2020. I am open to both industry and academia. Feel free to contact me if you find a match.
Research Interests
My research interests focus on computer system, edge computing, and machine learning. Currently, I am interested in solving how edge devices (e.g. vehicle, mobile phone) run costly machine learning algorithms with limited resources. The research points include algorithms, machine learning frameworks, and system optimization. The research scenes focus on autonomous driving and smart home.Experience

Projects
-
OpenEI (Feb. 2019 - Current, Wayne State University and Institute of Computing Technology)
An open framework for edge intelligence.

pBEAM (Nov. 2017 - Nov. 2018, Wayne State University, IBM, Denso)
This work proposes pBEAM, a collaborative cloud-edge computation system for personalized driving behavior modeling. The driving behavior model is built on top of Generative Adversarial Recurrent Neural Networks (GARNN), which adapts to the dynamic change of normal driving. A personalized edge model is trained on top of the pruned model using CGARNN-Edge (Conditional GARNN), which considers drivers’ personal or contextual information as additional conditions.

pCAMP (Mar. 2018 - Current, Wayne State University and Institute of Computing Technology)
This work makes a comprehensive performance comparison and analysis of several state-of-the-art deep learning packages on the edges, including TensorFlow, Caffe2, MXNet, PyTorch, and TensorFlow Lite. It focuses on evaluating the latency, memory footprint and energy of these tools with four popular deep learning models on different edge devices, including MacBook, Intel FogNode, NVIDIA Jetson TX2, Raspberry Pi, and Nexus 6P.

SafeShareRide (Dec. 2017 - Oct. 2018, Wayne State University)
An edge-based attack detection in ridesharing services, namely SafeShareRide, which can detect dangerous events happening in the vehicle in near real time. The detection of SafeShareRide consists of three stages: speech recognition, driving behavior detection, and video capture and analysis. We implemented SafeShareRide system by leveraging open source algorithms.
