Yongan (Luke) Zhang 
I am a 5th-year Ph.D. student at Georgia Tech, advised by Prof. Yingyan (Celine) Lin. Before coming
to Georgia Tech, I received my M.S. from Rice University. I received my B.S. in Electrical
Engineering from Rice University. My research focuses on domain-specific acceleration for AI
applications and hardware design automation.
