Yipeng Huang

Yipeng Huang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Rutgers University, School of Arts and Sciences. His research focuses on building and helping programmers use quantum, analog, and other emerging computer architectures for the post-Moore's Law era of computing. He teaches undergraduate and graduate courses including Computer Architecture (CS 211) and Quantum Computing: Programs and Systems (CS 558/443).

Huang actively mentors graduate students and recruits undergraduates for research in quantum computing and computer architecture. His PhD advisees include Zirui Li, Jonathan Garcia-Mallen, Adeeb Kabir, Haoyan Luo, Enhyeok Jang, and Seungwoo Choi, with undergraduate researchers including Pooja Kedia and Winston Li.

Huang's research spans quantum computing, computer architecture, and analog computing. His work examines quantum error correction, quantum software development, and hybrid analog-digital systems for scientific computation. He has published extensively on quantum error correction, quantum compilation frameworks, and analog accelerators for solving differential equations and linear algebra problems.

Huang's recent publications show a strong focus on practical quantum computing systems, with several 2025 papers on high-dimensional quantum error correction, qudit simulation, and optimized quantum program generation. His work bridges theoretical quantum computing with practical implementation challenges.
