About me

This is Xiyue Zhang’s homepage! I am a Research Associate, working in the QAVAS group of Prof. Marta Kwiatkowska, in the Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford (August 2022-). I obtained my Ph.D. degree in June 2022 advised by Prof. Meng Sun, and I obtained my B.Sc. degree in June 2017 from Peking University. My current research mainly focuses on trustworthy deep learning, formal modeling and verification.
