Jichang Yang (杨佶昌)

I am a 4th-year PhD student at The University of Hong Kong (HKU), where I am privileged to be advised by Prof. Zhongrui Wang and Prof. Han Wang. My research lies at the intersection of advanced semiconductor devices and next-generation artificial intelligence, with a specific focus on in-memory computing. My current work involves the circuit-level optimization of RRAM-based in-memory computing systems, aiming to overcome hardware bottlenecks in energy-efficient AI deployment.

Also with a background in power electronics and motor control, I have developed capabilities in circuit design and control system simulation. I aim to empower traditional industrial frameworks by integrating the intelligent capabilities of in-memory computing, leveraging the synergistic strengths of both to build smarter and more efficient systems.
