My name is Zixun Zhang. I am now a PhD student with DeepBitLab, FNii at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen).
I got my Academic master's degree and Bachelor's degree at Dalian University of Technology (DLUT) advised by Prof. Na Lei and Prof. Lin Lin. During my master's study, I was a visiting student and research assistant at Shenzhen Research Institute of Big Data (SRIBD), CUHK-Shenzhen mentored by Dr. Zhen Li.
My research interest includes - but not limited to - neural network pruning, neural architecture search and knowledge distillation, and their application on various CV domains.
