Peijie Dong (董佩杰)

My name is Peijie Dong, a Ph.D. student in Data Science and Analysis at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou). Under the supervision of Prof. Xiaowen Chu, my research focuses on auto machine learning, deep learning, and model compression. I obtained my B.S. in Software Engineering from Northwest Agriculture & Forestry University supervised by Prof. Hongming Zhang and A.P Yaojun Geng, where I ranked first in my class with a GPA of 3.78/4.0. Additionally, I completed my Master of Engineering at the National University of Defense Technology under the guidance of Advisor A.P. Xin Niu and Zhiliang Tian. Apart from my primary research interests, I also have a keen interest in large language models and diffusion models.

Feel free to add me on WeChat with the ID “topeijie” for further discussions and conversations. I look forward to connecting with you!
