Diyuan Deng

B.Sc. candidate in Data Science & Big Data Technology

Embodied AI · LLM Inference · Applied ML

Bio

I'm a junior at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen), majoring in Data Science and Big Data Technology. My work sits at the intersection of large-model serving, embodied intelligence, and applied machine learning.

Currently I'm doing LLM inference optimization as a capstone project at SF Technology, focusing on throughput and parallelism for large-model serving. Previously I interned on embodied-AI data engineering, building xArm data pipelines and adapting VLA models to the LeRobot framework.

Outside of work I'm a teaching fellow for core CS courses, a 3D-printing assistant at the university library, and the co-founder of a cycling club with 80+ members.
