Welcome to Xianglong Yan’s (闫相龙) personal website!
I am currently a third-year undergraduate student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU), majoring in Computer Science and Technology at the School of Computer Science, SJTU. I am advised by Prof. Yulun Zhang.
My research focuses on efficient large language model (LLM) deployment, with particular emphasis on model compression and long-context inference. I am especially interested in post-training quantization (PTQ), low-bit quantization (e.g., binarization and ternarization), and KV cache compression, aiming to build accurate yet resource-efficient LLM systems that are practical for real-world deployment.
I am always open to collaborations and academic discussions. Feel free to reach out via email at yanxianglong@sjtu.edu.cn, or connect with me on WeChat (ID: yxlsds).
