BIOGRAPHY

Lian Zhang graduated from Zhejiang University in 2015 and received his Ph.D degree at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2019. From 2019 to 2020, he worked as a postdoc at Penn State University, and then worked at In-Chao Institute Ltd. He joined SRIBD in December 2022. Dr. Lian Zhang's research interests encompass scientific and engineering computing as well as deep learning, with a particular focus on algorithm research in fluid-structure interaction and computer vision, along with their applications in industry. After joining SRIBD, his primary research direction has shifted to algorithms and applications of large language models.
