Short Biography

I am Chaofan Tao (陶超凡), a 4th-year PhD candidate in The Univerisity of Hong Kong (HKU), supervised by Prof. Ngai Wong and Prof. Ping Luo. I received my Bachelor degree from the Honors College in the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China.

Previously, I worked at Sea AI Lab, Amazon Web Service, Huawei and SenseTime as research intern. My research papers are published in ACL/EMNLP/ECCV/NeurIPS/ICML/T-NNLS, .etc. See the selected publications here.

My research interests are:

1. Model/Data-Efficiency & Acceleration: Pruning, quantization, distillation .etc to reduce model size and speedup inference, or efficient tuning with a small training cost.
   
2. Multi-modal Pre-trained Models: Multi-task large models, which supports diverse tasks with different modalities.
