Kunyu Shi
I have been an Applied Scientist in AWS AI Labs since 2020, focusing on document understanding and large foundational models. I have worked on several AWS AI services in Amazon Textract and Bedrock.
I received my Master in Computer Science from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) in 2020, and Bachelor of Electrical Engineering from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) in 2018.
Before joining Amazon, I have worked as research assistant at Machine Learning, Perception, and Cognition Laboratory (mlPC) in UCSD (2019-2020 with Prof. Zhuowen Tu) and Big Data Research Center in UESTC (in 2016 with Prof. Tao Zhou). I worked as research intern at MEDATC in 2018 and Ayers group at McMaster University in 2017 with Prof. Paul W. Ayers.
My academic and industrial research interest includes panoptic segmentation, large scale multi-modality learning and document understanding.
