About Me
Hello! I’m a passionate undergrad researcher at the intersection of machine learning, mathematics, and real-world applications.
I am currently advised by Professor Jun Zhu at Tsinghua University. I am interested in machine learning, with a broad focus on optimization, AI for Science and human-AI interaction.
I am also exploring the integration of human knowledge with DL and RL (in the context of LLMs) to build more intelligent and robust agents.
During my summer intership at Stanford, I am fortunate to work with PhD candidate Jackie Yang under the guidance of Professor James Landay and Professor Monica Lam.
We developed the first socially appropriate whispered voice input method using earbuds.
The cross-lingual learning ability and hidden knowledge distribution in large models were particularly fascinating to me.
I’ll be starting my Ph.D. in Computing and Mathematical Sciences in Professor Anima Anandkumar’s group at Caltech from Fall 2024!
Research Interests
- Machine Learning: I aim to leverage AI to unravel the complexities of the real world and discover novel scientific principles.
Recognizing the limitations of purely data-driven approaches, I plan to foster a bi-directional flow of representation and knowledge to improve capability and robustness in scientific machine learning and machine learning as a whole.
- Human-AI Interaction: I aim to contribute to the field of technical human-computer interaction by developing novel solutions that address human challenges.
My focus is on bridging the gap between technical innovation and real-world application, facilitating interaction through AI and with AI in an advanced and socially responsible manner.
