Greetings! 👋🏻 Welcome to my homepage.

About me

I am currently a Ph.D. student at AI Thrust, Information Hub, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou), where I am fortunately supervised by Prof. Hao LIU. Before that, I received the M.Eng. degree in Computer Technology from Central South University in 2022.

My research focuses on AI4Science, Spatiotemporal Data Mining, Graph Representation Learning, specifically the area of Large Language Models including their theoretical foundations and applications.
