Marina Neseem

Research Scientist - Nvidia, Santa Clara, CA. (July 2024 - Present)

• My research focuses on improving the efficiency of deep learning models.

Research Intern - Google, Mountain View, CA. (June 2023 - August 2023)

• I joined as a Reseach Intern in YouTube.
• The goal of my internship was to develop an efficient quantized general-purpose backbone for vision tasks and co-design it with custom hardware to efficiently support high-throughput workloads at YouTube.
• My developed model along with the co-designed hardware can be widely used for various downstream computer-vision tasks where efficiency is critical.

Research Intern - Microsoft Research, Redmond, WA. (June 2022 - August 2022)

• I re-joined the AI Compiler group at Microsoft Research.
• During my internship, I developed a tool named SupersONNX.
• SupersONNX achieves high performance end-to-end inference for Deep Neural Networks with minimal runtime-overheads.
• SupersONNX applies multiple graph optimization techniques as well as optimized memory and buffer allocation.
• SupersONNX achieves 3-4X improvement in the memory footprint on Transformer models as well as Residual Convolutional models.

Research Intern - Microsoft Research, Redmond, WA. (June 2021 - August 2021)

• I joined the AI Compiler group at Microsoft Research.
• During my internship, I developed a heuristics-based grid search algorithm to search the design space of the compiler for the efficient configurations.
• I applied the heuristic-based grid search to matrix multiplication and convolution implementations with state-of-the-art performance.
• I also created case-studies to show-case the AI compiler.

Research Assistant - SCALE lab, Brown University (Sept 2019 - May 2024)

My research interests include Edge Intelligence, Adaptive/Dynamic Neural Networks, and Machine Learning optimization for resource-constrained devices.

Digital Design Teaching Assistant - Brown University (Sept 2020 - Dec 2020)

My responsibility is to assist the students in completing their Labs that include using simulation digital design tools like LTspice, Electric, and other commercial tools for Logic Synthesis, Placement and Routing.

Research Intern - SCALE lab, Brown University (Jan 2019 - June 2019)

As a part of the OpenROAD project, I was responsible for implementing a physical synthesis tool on top of the open source logic synthesis tools Yosys and ABC in C/C++.
