Inside the Lab
Research that moves between theory, systems, and hardware
ICRG connects algorithm design, AI infrastructure, architecture exploration, circuit implementation, and emerging-device research in one collaborative pipeline.
Research Mission
Building the computing foundation for AI that can do reliable work
The Intelligent Computing Research Group (ICRG), led by Prof. Zhezhi He at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, studies the computing infrastructure needed for AI to move from generating content to understanding, deciding, and acting in the real world. To make such systems efficient, reliable, and deployable, we co-design neuromorphic and spiking AI, processing-in/near-memory architectures, spatial AI accelerators, AI-assisted chip design tools, and emerging-device prototypes.
