About Me

My name is Bingyin Zhao (赵秉崟). I am a Research Fellow at the National University of Singapore, working with Dr. Biplab Sikdar. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Clemson University in the United States under the supervision of Dr. Yingjie Lao.

I worked as a Deep Learning Software and Research Intern at NVIDIA under the supervision of Dr. Jose M. Alvarez and Dr. Zhiding Yu. I received a full-time offer as a Senior System Software Engineer from NVIDIA after the internship but could not return to the U.S. due to an unexpected visa issue when I came back to visit my family in China. I then relocated to Singapore. Thank you Singapore for having me and I love this great place!

My research interests include Generative AI, Trustworthy AI and Computer Vision. I have authored, co-first-authored and co-authored several research papers in CVPR, ICCV, AAAI, TCAD, DAC, etc. I also serve as a reviewer for multiple computer vision, artificial intelligence and machine learning conferences, including CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, AAAI, etc.

I hope for world peace and that human beings live long and prosper.
