About Me

I am Yizou Chen 「陈一邹」, a PhD student at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) from 2023, advised by Prof. Ming-Chang Yang. Previously, I got my Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science and Technology from Harbin Institute of Technology, Shenzhen, advised by Prof. Wen XIA in 2023.
My research interests lie in memory/storage system and its iteraction with big data / AI applications.
