Lijun Zhang
I am a last-year Ph.D. student in the College of Information and Computer Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, advised by Prof. Hui Guan. Before coming to UMass, I got my Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees in the School of Software Engineering, Tongji University, advised by Prof. Lin Zhang. My research interests are Automated Machine Learning and Computer Vision and mainly focus on Multi-Task Learning and Diffusion Models.
Update: I’ll join Amazon Robotics as a Postdoc Scientist in 2025 Summer.
