About me

Hi👋! I am a second-year PhD student in Computer and Information Science at the University of Pennsylvania, advised by Prof. Dan Roth. I received my Master degree in Economics and Computer Science from Duke univeristy advised by Prof. Sam Wiseman. I graduated from Renmin Univeristy of China (RUC), majored in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics and minor in Computer Science. I worked with Prof. Jing Zhang and Prof. Xin Zhao at RUC.

My research interests lie in Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. I’m excited about LLM Reasoning and Agents. I’m particularly interested in:

  • LLM reasoning for complex intents, including complex reasoning, decision-making, planning, and interactions.
  • Analyzing and verifying the outputs of LLMs for more reliable and trustworthy AI systems.
