Meilong Zhang
Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia, USA

I am a current MS student at Georgia Tech and a graduate research assistant in the Gigascale Reliable Energy-Efficient Nanosystem (GREEN) Lab, advised by Professor Saibal Mukhopadhyay. I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in 2023 with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.
My research interests span computer vision, machine learning and deep learning, with a strong interest in open-set computer vision and efficient 3D/multimodal perception for autonomous self-driving. I am currently actively working on projects in fully-sparse LiDAR object detection. In my undergrad years, I explored dense associative memories for robust image classification as part of a summer undergraduate research fellowship experience at Georgia Tech. I was also a research assistant and Rose Hills Fellow in the UC Berkeley Knight Lab, working with Professor Robert Knight on explaining large language foundation models from a neuroscience perspective.
