Xinyin\u2019s research focuses on advancing the efficiency of deep learning models, including large language models (LLMs) and diffusion models, a critical area of innovation in the field of artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n<p>Under the guidance of Assistant Professor Wang Xinchao and in collaboration with her lab mates, Xinyin has developed several <span lang=\"EN-US\">widely recognized<\/span> compression algorithms to accelerate generative models. Among her notable contributions is <em>LLM-Pruner<\/em>, a pioneering structural pruning framework for large language models. As one of the world\u2019s first lightweight LLMs, <em>LLM-Pruner<\/em> has had a significant impact on the AI community and beyond, earning over 380 citations within a year of publication. Another standout innovation from Xinyin\u2019s research is <em>DeepCache<\/em>, which introduces training-free compression methods for diffusion models. This cutting-edge work has been integrated into TensorRT and Diffusers, the world\u2019s leading frameworks for high-performance deep learning and image generation.<\/p>\n<p>Xinyin\u2019s trailblazing contributions to AI research have redefined the efficiency of complex AI models while maintaining their high performance. Her work paves the way for deploying large-scale AI models on edge devices, making advanced AI technologies more accessible and versatile.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to Ms. Ma Xinyin on this outstanding achievement!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NUS ECE is proud to announce that Ms. Ma Xinyin, a PhD student in our programme, has been awarded the Google PhD Fellowship, one of the most prestigious accolades for doctoral students in computer science and engineering worldwide.
