I am a PhD candidate in the Machine Learning Program at Georgia Tech (class of 2024). I was fortunate to have interned at Apple MLR, Cajal Neuroscience, and Meta for the past few years. Currently, I conduct my research in the Neural Data Science Lab advised by Prof. Eva L. Dyer. Previously, I got my Bachelor’s degree from Fudan University majoring in physics working on Quantum Hall effect and Superconductors.
I am looking for a full-time position starting in Fall 2024.
My research interests lie at the intersection of Machine (Deep) Learning, Computational/Cognitive Neuroscience, and Computer Vision. I am interested in developing more generalizable and interpretable deep learning methods for sequential systems and vision, and using them to accelerate scientific discovery. The research projects that I worked on, or am actively working on include:
- Representation learning and generative models: Learning without explicit human annotation through self-supervision and generative modeling methods.
- Interpretable deep learning methods: Building deep learning architectures 1) that are more interpretable under certain pre-defined conditions or assumptions, and 2) that align better to out-of-distribution domains and downstream tasks.
- Multi-modal learning: Learning on multi-modal data in a more efficient and effective manner.
Outside from research, I do indoor climbing and I have two cats🐱.
