Hongyang Zhang is an assistant professor of computer science at Northeastern University, Boston, working at the intersection of machine learning theory and methods, algorithmic foundations, and graphs. Some of the topics Zhang works on include matrix and tensor methods, implicit regularization of SGD, generalization bounds, multitask learning and fine-tuning, graph neural networks and its application to social and transportation networks. He received his Ph.D. in computer science from Stanford, and worked with the theoretical computer science and the (statistical) machine learning groups. He was a postdoc at UPenn for a brief stint.
