About Me
I am currently a Research Fellow at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, working with Prof. Wei Lu. I obtained my Ph.D degree in Heidelberg University, Germany, supervised by Prof. Dr. Anette Frank. Prior to this, I received my M.Sc. and B.Eng. from Nankai University, China, supervised by Prof. Zhenglu Yang.
My research focuses on NLP and LLMs, with an emphasis on Evaluation, Reasoning, and Generalization. I am also interested in self-evolving LLMs, agentic systems, and the intersection of cognitive science and AI. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss research ideas or just say hi : )
