Dr. Dongyang Zhang 张东阳

Deputy Researcher, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China

I work on computer vision and model compression, with a focus on lightweight deep image restoration, super-resolution, dataset distillation, and model quantization.

About

Research Profile

I am a Deputy Researcher, equivalent to Associate Professor, at the Laboratory of Intelligent Collaborative Computing, UESTC. Before joining UESTC, I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Technology from UESTC in 2022, supervised by Prof. Heng Tao Shen and co-supervised by Prof. Jie Shao. I obtained my B.S. degree in Software Engineering from UESTC in 2017.
