About Me

I am now an Associate Professor at PALM lab, Department of Computer Science, Southeast University (SEU), China. I got my B.S. degree from Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications (NUPT), M.S. degree from Southeast University (SEU) supervised by Prof Xin Geng, and Ph.D. from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) supervised by Prof Jianfei Cai and Prof Hanwang Zhang.

Research Interests

I have wide interest on AI, especially machine learning and deep learning, recently, I especially focus on multi-model in-context learning and learngene framework. In the past and future few years, I will focus on the following topics:

Misc

When I have some available time, I usually read, swim, and run. I have ubiquitous interest on different topics of the books, including Computer Science, Philosophy, History, Politics, Literature, and Detective Fiction.

Some recommended books:
