About Me

Dr. Zhihui Yang is a researcher at the School of Software Technology, Zhejiang University. She is also a member of the Intelligent Service Committee of the Artificial Intelligence Society. She received her Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from Fudan Unviersity in Jan. 2022, under the supervision of Prof. X. Sean Wang. She was a Visiting Scholar at the Information Systems Group (ISG) at UC Irvine from Sep. 2018 to Sep. 2020, mentored by Prof. Chen Li and Dr. Yao Lu. She served as a senior researcher at Zhejiang Lab from Feb. 2022 to Feb. 2024. My CV is here.

My research interests are in the field of big data management and analytics, including database, query processing and optimization, database systems + machine learning (DB+ML).
