I am a PhD student in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Notre Dame. My advisor is Prof. Yanfang (Fanny) Ye. Under Prof. Ye’s supervision, I collaborate with my lab mates and Prof. Lichao Sun.
I am now working on NLP, deep learning (about methods of training models), large language models (LLMs) and multimodal training research. If you are seeking any form of academic cooperation, please feel free to email me at zyuan2@nd.edu.
My research interest includes Accelerated Computing, NLP, deep learning (about methods of trainning models), large language models (LLMs) and multimodal training.
