I am a Research Fellow at National University of Singapore (NUS), advised by Prof.
Mong-Li Lee and Prof.
Wynne Hsu.
I received my Ph.D. degree from Wuhan University, supervised by Prof.
Donghong Ji and Prof.
Fei Li.
I previously visited the Next++ Research Centre in NUS, advised by Prof.
Tat-Seng Chua and Dr. Hao Fei.
My research falls in the scope of large language models (LLMs), with an emphasis on affective computing, multimodal reasoning, and agentic systems.
