Background
  • Main research interests focus on Large Language Models, especially revealing LLM internals in black-box settings. Past research focused on Machine Learning and Deep Learning with intersections in Physics (Light, Electromagnetic Waves, Sound Waves), Biomedical (Proteins, Alzheimer's Disease), and Wireless Systems (LoRa signals). Specifically, he has researched AI for Science, Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, IoT Systems, and Robotics.
Miscellany
  • Research philosophy is to use technology to benefit people in the world. COVID-19 once destroyed many important things, and there are many people suffering from various diseases, so he hopes to utilize his knowledge to protect the people he loves.
  • Favorite Sentence: 春风若有怜花意,可否许我再少年。
  • Girlfriend Ms. Xinyu Wang works on Computational Biology, aiming to leverage machine learning algorithms for molecular modeling and model evaluation to enhance human understanding of macromolecules—particularly proteins and protein-RNA complexes.
