Draft:You Yang

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: It is far too soon for him. He needs to establish himself much more on the international stage with a significant track record of publications and major awards. He has made a good start, but it will be 5-10 years before he qualifies for a Wikipedia page. I will discourage you from trying again. Ldm1954 (talk) 23:21, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: It seems this 'Presidential Young Professor' is not a named chair, per se. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:00, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Dear Editor, I want to change the draft title to "Yang You (computer scientist)" to be in consist of the article. However, I cannot do that by myself. Could you please help me to move the page after approval? Thank you in advance.

Yang YOU (born April 19, 1991) is a Assistant Prof (Presidential Young Professor) at National University of Singapore...[1]

Biography[edit]

Yang received his undergraduate degree from the School of Information and Electrical Engineering, China Agricultural University[2], his master's degree in Computer Science from Tsinghua University in 2015, and his Ph.D. degree from University of California, Berkeley under the supervision of James Demmel in 2020. He joined National University of Singapore as a Presidential Young Professor in Computer Science and established a company called HPC-AI Tech for utilizing HPC technologies to AI field and unlocking AI productivity.

Academic works[edit]

Yang is known for his work in large scale optimization. He proposed LARS[3] in 2018 which set a new world record for ImageNet training, reducing the time for AlexNet training on ImageNet to just 24 minutes. The following year, he optimized the algorithm again and proposed the LAMB[4] algorithm to solve the former's problem of poor performance on attention models such as BERT, reducing the BERT training time from 3 days to 76 minutes.

Honors and awards[edit]

Yang You is a Siebel Scholar[5]. He received ACM/IEEE-CS George Michael Memorial HPC Fellowships in 2017[6]. He won Lotfi A. Zadeh Prize in 2020 for his outstanding contributions to the field of soft computing and its applications[7]. He is Forbes' 30 under 30 Asia(2021) and won IEEE-CS TCHPC Early Career Award[8]
