Welcome to

Yin Zheng's Homepage

My name is Yin Zheng (郑胤), I received Ph.D from Tsinghua University under the supervision of Prof. Yu-Jin Zhang (Tsinghua University) and Prof. Hugo Larochelle (Google Brain). I am now a Research Scientist at Weixin Group, Tencent, focusing on Information Retrieval and Content Understanding. Before that, I was at Machine Learning Center of Tencent's AI Lab for Recommender Systems Techniques, AutoML(Neural Architecture Search), etc. My research interest is Deep Learning, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, specifically, AutoML and Recommender Systems. I like tennis, and I‘m a big fan of Roger Federer. Our tennis team won the first prize of tennis (马约翰杯) in Tsinghua at April 2015, and I am the vice president of Tencent Tennis Club where I organized the Tencent Tennis Championship of 2018. I graduated from Tsinghua University in 2015. Before joining Tencent, I was a researcher at Hulu for recommender system.
