Introduction<\/h2>\n

Zheyu is now an Assistant Professor at Zhejiang University.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Zheyu received his Ph.D.\u00a0 from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Notre Dame in 2024.\u00a0 He received B.S. from Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China, and joined the Notre Dame family in 2019. He is co-advised by Dr. Yiyu Shi<\/a> and Dr. X. Sharon Hu<\/a>.<\/p>\n

His general research direction is hardware\/software co-design for neuromorphic computing. His current interests are uncertainty modeling of non-volatile emerging device-based neural accelerators and achieving efficient DNN inference via co-design efforts.<\/p>\n

He is currently on the market!<\/strong><\/p>\n
