Personal belief hero image

Hi 👋! I’m Jingming Liang, and you can also call me Brighton. I am from Dalian, China, and currently a junior CS undergraduate at the School of Computer Science, Nankai University Nankai University emblem, pursuing dual minors in Finance and Criminal Law. My CV is available here for direct viewing.

Beyond my interdisciplinary studies, my main focus is building efficient ML systems and scalable AI infrastructure. I am actively looking for research and engineering opportunities in ML Systems, Distributed AI, and Hardware-Aware Optimization. Feel free to reach out through the email and social links in the sidebar!

Research Interests:

  • Efficient ML Systems and AI Infrastructure: Scalable training, efficient inference, model serving, and systems optimization for LLMs and multimodal LLMs.
  • Distributed Systems for Large-Scale AI: Runtime efficiency, resource scheduling, distributed execution, and parallel system design for large-scale LLM workloads.
  • FinTech and Analytics: Using programming, data analysis, and quantitative modeling to support financial decision-making, business intelligence, and insight extraction from real-world data.

🔥 News

  • [Apr 2026] IEEE Under Review
    Diagnosing and Mitigating Noun-Driven Routing Bias in Multimodal Mixture-of-Experts My paper is currently under review at IEEE. The work introduces a training-free probe, CMRD, to diagnose how queried nouns can bias visual routing in multimodal MoE models, localizes the strongest effect to a shared deep-layer routing hotspot, and studies inference-time mitigation strategies that reduce false positives in object hallucination benchmarks.

📝 Projects and Research

Projects

GPU Systems
APSP GPU optimization project overview

GPU Optimization for All-Pairs Shortest Path (Individual Competitor; CCF-TCARCH 2025 National Champion)

  • Designed a memory-aware 3-stage blocked Floyd–Warshall pipeline to reduce bandwidth pressure in dense APSP computation, using shared memory to improve data locality.
  • Optimized kernel execution through fusion, dual-stream scheduling, double buffering, and reduced synchronization overhead. Further compressed host-to-device transfer cost from O(V²) to O(E) via custom I/O and device-side graph reconstruction.
  • Ranked 1st nationally as an individual competitor, achieving a 52% end-to-end speedup on the official hidden datasets (11.50s → 5.42s) through profiling-driven optimization and systematic performance tuning.
Information Systems
RaceRadar iOS app overview

RaceRadar: An End-to-End iOS System for Aggregating and Prioritizing Competition Opportunities (Independent systems engineering project; App Store release in preparation)

  • Built a fault-tolerant, multi-source ingestion pipeline that continuously crawls, cleans, deduplicates, and ranks competition announcements, publishing a unified JSON feed through scheduled GitHub Actions workflows.
  • Developed a native iOS app in Swift/Xcode with card-based discovery, detailed opportunity pages, deadline-aware prioritization, source/category tagging, and shareable competition posters.
  • Designed the system around real student workflows, translating automated data ingestion and ranking into a deployable user-facing information system for discovering higher-quality and time-sensitive opportunities.

Research

LTSF
SparseTSF-FFT framework overview

SparseTSF-FFT: A Frequency-Domain Framework for Time Series Forecasting

  • Reimplemented and extended SparseTSF from PyTorch to MindSpore, including custom API mappings and reconstruction of the training/evaluation pipeline for cross-framework deployment.
  • Designed an FFT-based learnable filtering module to replace local sliding-window convolutions, aiming to better capture long-range periodic structure under a lightweight parameter budget.
  • Conducted cross-framework profiling and forecasting evaluations, observing improved long-horizon performance (e.g., at 336 and 720 steps on ETTh1/ETTh2) relative to the baseline.
Diffusion Models
K-LoRA project overview

Research on Adaptive Weight Selection for Image Diffusion Models (National 3rd Prize in Challenge Cup, K-LoRA++)

  • Extended the training-free object-style fusion framework (CVPR 2025 K-LoRA) by mathematically formulating and evaluating 8 distinct stage-aware scaling schedules across diffusion timesteps.
  • Demonstrated through first-order derivative analysis and cross-domain experiments that a constant-derivative linear schedule optimally balances content fidelity and style consistency, effectively preventing structural distortion and visual jitter during the fusion process.
  • Facilitated the end-to-end development of the project’s interactive demo and drove its practical deployment for downstream generative applications.

💼 Internships

📡 Technical Communication

Public Engagement

Beyond research, I enjoy sharing structured learning materials on computer science and AI through public-facing educational content. This experience has helped me practice technical communication and think more carefully about how complex ideas can be made accessible to broader audiences.

CS and AI Educational Outreach

I create structured study notes, learning resources, and course-oriented materials for student audiences, and I am continuing to expand this work toward broader computer science and AI topics.

This work has helped me think more deliberately about clarity, structure, and accessibility when communicating technical ideas.

Beyond Research

Outside academic work, I enjoy music, marathon running, and independent travel. Formal training in violin and guitar, along with marathon training and solo travel, has strengthened my discipline, resilience, and curiosity.
