Zhicheng Guo is a research-focused machine learning engineer with eight years of experience bridging clinical physiological modeling and efficient ML systems. Based at Duke University, he contributes to the Interpretable Machine Learning Lab while pursuing a PhD in Computer Engineering, blending rigorous academic research with practical clinical applications like cardiac monitoring. His industry experience includes developing agentic LLM frameworks and hardware-aware neural architecture and mixed-precision co-optimization at Texas Instruments, enabling low-cost, on-site inference with specialized small reasoning models. Past quantitative internships applied auto-gating and deep learning to HIV/AIDS flow cytometry data, showing a knack for translating noisy biomedical signals into actionable models. He combines domain knowledge across healthcare data and constrained-edge ML, and is comfortable optimizing both model interpretability and hardware trade-offs. Colleagues would note his uncommon pairing of clinical modeling interests with hands-on systems-level ML research.
