Kaixiang Zheng 郑凯翔

Ph.D. Candidate @ University of Waterloo

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo, advised by Prof. En-Hui Yang in the Multicom Research Group. Before that, I received my B.S. in Automation from Tianjin University in 2021.

My research mainly focuses on efficient and trustworthy AI. I study how to make deep learning models more efficient through distillation, quantization and architecture design, more reliable by improving their generalization, robustness and ability to abstain. I'm also broadly interested in computer vision, information theory, large language models, and multimodality.
