Biography
I am a first year PhD student at UCLA, majoring in Computer Science. I’m advised by Prof. Jason Cong in VAST lab.
Before I joined UCLA, I worked with Prof. Yibo Lin at PKU on differentiable physical design optimization and AI4EDA research. I also did an internship at UT Austin Prof. David Pan’s group, where I focused on improving the gate sizing design.
