Hi, I’m Zhongwei, a PhD student in the Computer Science and Engineering Division at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I’m fortunate to be advised by Prof.Lin Ma. My research interests broadly span the intersection of AI and systems. Currently, I’m working on cost optimization for LLM agents. I’m also very interested in building and optimizing data pipelines for robotics.

Previously, I worked on optimizing data lakehouse systems (LakeHelm) and on GPU databases.

Before that, I obtained my B.S from Xi’an Jiaotong University, where I majored in computer science.
