Assistant Professor

About Me

I am currently an assistant professor at the Intelligent Processor Research Center, Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. I obtained my Ph.D. degree from the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2024, advised by Prof. Wen Ji. I have an exchange visit to the High Performance Computing for Artificial Intelligence (HPC-AI) Lab at the National University of Singapore, advised by Yang You.

My research interests include multimedia systems, edge/cloud computing, LLM inference optimization, and efficient AI system design. I have served as a reviewer of ACM MM, NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, AISTATS, lEEE Transactions on ETCl, lEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine, etc. I am also actively involved in the standardization of the End-Edge-Cloud system. I am a member of the IEEE Digital Retina Systems (3161 WG) Standards Working Group, which is the world’s first international standards organization focused on vision end-edge-cloud systems.

🔥Long-term Recruiting: I am looking for visiting students (bachelor, master, or Ph.D.), feel free to contact me at yangzheming@ict.ac.cn if interested in my research.
