Zhongzhan Huang (黄中展)

Hi, I am Zhongzhan Huang (黄中展), a Final-year Computer Science PhD student at Sun Yat-sen University, advised by Prof. Liang Lin in Human-Cyber-Physical Intelligence Integration (HCP-l2) Lab. My research interests include the foundations of deep learning (e.g. network architectures, attention mechanisms, LLMs and diffusion models), and recommender system.
