I am a final-year Ph.D. student at the Department of Statistics, Oxford, supervised by Dr. Tom Rainforth and Prof. Yee Whye Teh. Before that, I got my BS and MS degrees from Peking University and worked as a researcher at Bytedance AI lab. I'm currently working on natural language reasoning and generative models aiming at building real AI systems. I'm graduating in 2024 and I'm looking for a position in academia to continue my research. If you are interested in my work, please feel free to drop me an email.
