Research Experience
- Interned at ByteDance AI Lab, researching deep generative models (such as non-autoregressive text generation, latent variable modeling). Currently, a Research Scientist at ByteDance Seed.
Education
- Earned a Ph.D. in March 2022 from the Natural Language Processing Group of Nanjing University, co-supervised by Prof. Shujian Huang and Prof. Jiajun Chen. During doctoral studies, interned at ByteDance AI Lab, mentored by Prof. Zhou Hao and Prof. Lei Li, where I researched deep generative modeling (e.g., non-autoregressive text generation, latent variable modeling).
Background
- Currently a Research Scientist at ByteDance Seed, specializing in Large Language Model (LLM), AI for Science (AI4S), and Natural Language Processing (NLP) research.
