About Me

I am currently a second-year Ph.D. student in Artificial Intelligence Thrust of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou), supervised by Prof. Yingcong Chen. Before that, I had a great time at Southern University of Science and Technology, working as a research assistant under the supervision of Prof. Yu Zhang. I received my Bachelor degree from School of Mathematical Sciences, South China Normal University in Jun. 2020. My research interests include Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and AI4Science, especially in multi-task learning and generative modeling (AIGC).
