Hi, this is Yu Cheng (程羽). I am a third-year graduate student in School of Computer Science at Peking University, advised by Prof. Zhi Yang. I received my B.S. (Summa Cum Laude) from Turing Class at Peking University in 2022.

I am also a research intern in System Research Group of Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA), supervised by Dr. Jilong Xue and Dr. Lingxiao Ma.

I am a core developer of TileLang, a programming language for AI workload on various hardware platforms.

My research interests lie in deep learning systems, specifically on compilation optimization of deep learning framework.
