Juncheng Wan

I am a Machine Learning System Engineerer at Bytedance Seed. In the past, I received my M.Eng. and B.S. (with honors) from School of Computer Science and Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, advised by Prof. Weinan Zhang and Prof. Yong Yu in APEX Lab. I am also a member of Zhiyuan's Honors Program of Engineering.
