Jiajun Qin

I am Jiajun Qin (秦嘉俊 in Chinese), a final-year undergraduate majoring in Computer Science and Technology at Chu Kochen Honors College, Zhejiang University. I am expected to graduate in 2025. I had the privilege to complete a research internship at NYU SAI Lab under the supervision of Prof.Sai Qian Zhang. I was also fortunate to collaborate with Prof.Cheng Tan from Google and Prof.Jeff Zhang from ASU. Prior to this, I greatly appreciated the mentorship of Prof.Zeke Wang at RC4ML at ZJU.

I will join The Chinese University of Hong Kong as a CSE PhD student, advised by Prof.Bei Yu, starting from 2025 Fall.

My research interests include:

  • Hardware/Software Co-Design for AI
  • Computer Architecture
  • Reconfigurable Accelerator (e.g. Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Array)
  • Electronic Design Automation
