About Me
Hi, my name’s Zulun Zhu and I graduated from Zhejiang University and National University of Defense Technology for bachelor and master stages respectively. Currently, I am a third-year Ph.D. candidate at Nanyang Technological University. During my PhD stage, I am focusing on the Database of Graphs, Machine Learning, Graph Neural Networks, and Spiking Neural Networks. For the master stage, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) systems are mainly focused on. I have worked on a number of projects gaining teamwork and leadership skills.
