🔥About Me

I am a Machine Learning Ph.D. student at Georgia Institute of Technology starting from fall 2023, advised by Professors Yongxin Chen and Molei Tao. Previously, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Statistics from the School of Mathematical Sciences, Peking University in 2023, where I was mentored by Professor Cheng Zhang. I was born and grew up in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, P.R. China in 2001.

🔥Interests

I am broadly interested in fields ranging from statistics, probability, and machine learning. My current research interests include but are not limited to:

Statistics and Probability: Theoretical analysis and practical design of sampling algorithms (Markov Chain Monte Carlo, non-equilibrium, or learning-based neural samplers); Applied stochastic analysis with applications to optimal transport, stochastic optimal control, and statistical physics.

Machine Learning: Generative Modeling, with a particular focus on (continuous/discrete) diffusion and flow-based models and with applications to vision and language.

I am also interested in la langue française (the French language), vernaculars of Chinese and minority languages in China, linguistics, political science, China’s railway system, civil aviation, architecture, and video games (especially action games such as The Last of Us, Assassin’s Creed, and the Метро (Metro) series). I am a fan of LE SSERAFIM. I am an enthusiast of traveling. Some of my highly recommended destinations that I have been to, and possessing profound historical and cultural heritage, include Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Datong, Macau, Washington, D.C., and my hometown Ningbo.
