About me

Hi, welcome to Jinglei Cheng’s homepage!~

I am currently a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at Purdue University. My advisor is Associate Professor. Xuehai Qian.

I received my Bachelor’s Degree from Tsinghua University in 2018, where I was working with Professor. Tianling Ren and Professor. Shouyi Yin.

Before transfering to Purdue in Fall 2022, I spent four years (2018~2022) in Viterbi School of Engineering at University of Southern California as a Ph.D. student.

Research

My research interests lie in the area of Quantum Computing. I am working on projects that can enhance the performance of existing quantum devices by decreasing compilation overhead and circuit latency. To optimize the compilation workflow for applications such as Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) and Quantum Machine Learning (QML), different techniques such as quantum optimal control and graph transformer are used.
