About Me
This is Zihao Ye, a third-year Ph.D. student at the University of Washington’s Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering, advised by Luis Ceze in the SAMPL research group. I also work closely with Tianqi Chen on Apache TVM project.
Prior to joining UW, I spent two years at AWS where I worked with Minjie Wang and Zheng Zhang. I obtained my bachelor’s degree from ACM Honors Class at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
We are organizing talks at SAMPL, topics include Systems, Architecture, Compilers, Verification and Machine Learning.
Research
I have broad interests in Computer Systems, Compiler, Programming Languages, and Computer Architecture. My current research centers around sparse computation:
- Programming Abstraction/Compilers for Sparse Workloads on Heterogeneous Hardware.
- Domain Specific Accelerator and Memory Architecture for Sparsity.
- Scalable and Affordable Sparse Computation in Data Centers.
Feel free to drop me an email if we have aligned interests, and I’m open to collaborations.
News
- Mar 2023 SparseTIR has been awarded the Distinguished Artifact at ASPLOS 2023!
- Feb 2023 I’m going to be a TA for CSE 599M in Spring 2023, which is ML for ML Systems taught by Luis Ceze. I’m really excited to be a part of this new course.
- Jan 2023 The team and I are proud to announce that SparseTIR will be featured at ASPLOS 2023. We’ll be heading to Vancouver and can’t wait to see everyone there!
Current Projects
Compiler for Sparsity in Deep Learning
SparseTIR is a tensor-level abstraction for representing and optimizing sparse/irregular operators in Deep Learning. The project is in close collaboration with Ruihang and Tianqi from CMU Catalyst and Junru from OctoML, we thank the support and advice from advisors TQ and Luis, and assistance from the TensorIR team.
