I am an MPhil. candidate in Artificial Intelligence at HKUST (Guangzhou), under the supervision of Prof. Hui Xiong (IEEE/AAAI/AAAS Fellow) and Dr. Xuming Hu. I received my BSc. degree in Economic Statistics from Renmin University of China.
I mainly focus on mechanistic interpretability of multimodal LLMs with additional knowledge in data mining and graph analysis. I also have experience in AI startups and knowledge transfer, bridging theoretical research with practical applications.
