About
I am currently pursuing my undergraduate degree at Hong Kong Baptist University. Previously, I gained valuable research experience as a research intern at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Currently, I am furthering my research skills as a research intern at the Center for Artificial Intelligence Research and Innovation Lab, Westlake University, under the esteemed supervision of Stan Z. Li.
My areas of interest include Multimodal Large Language Models, Optimization in Deep Learning, and Computer Vision.
You can find me at the following websites:
My research goal is to profoundly understand the black-box cornerstone of deep learning by exploring often overlooked and counterintuitive phenomena in foundational models, thereby aiding and witnessing the emergence of new optimization techniques and the evolution of MLLM into a generalist model.
I am also open to interesting research or competition opportunities. If you are interested in collaborating with me, please feel free to contact me:
