Experience

Machine Learning Engineer Intern
  • Developed an AI tool for image editing, significantly enhancing the quality of image editing tasks.
  • Integrated multiple advanced AI models, including ChatGPT, Segment Anything Model (SAM), Grounding-Dino, and Stable Diffusion, to achieve high-quality image editing results, enabling the image to be more realistic.
  • Implemented model pruning on Blip2 and CLIP models, optimizing their efficiency, reduced memory usage by 30%, reduced average runtime by 40%.
  • Skills: Python, PyTorch, LLM, Model Pruning and Quantization
Feb. 2023 - June 2023 | Sacramento, United States
Software Engineer Intern
  • Completed the refactoring of a data center that significantly improved its operational efficiency, reduced the average query time by 70%.
  • Designed more appropriate data structures by specifically analyzing the application scenarios, reducing the query time complexity of the data center. Wrote automation test code for future code updates and maintenance.
  • Skills: C++, Data Structure
July 2022 - Sep. 2022 | Dongguan, China

Projects

Co-First Author
  • Co-authored a research paper《Exploring Low-Resource Medical Image Classification with Weakly Supervised Prompt Learning》, which was submitted to《Pattern Recognition》. Took a leading role in the design and execution of experiments, as well as partial writing of the research paper.
  • Leveraged the transferable representation capabilities of large-scale pre-trained vision-language models to alleviate the low-resource problem in medical images classification supporting clinical auxiliary diagnosis.
  • By introducing additional structures for zero-shot and few-shot learning prompt embedding, the model's classification ability is enhanced.
  • Skills: PyTorch, CLIP, Transformer
