About me
I am a third year Ph.D. student in University of Maryland, College Park, where I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Furong Huang. My research interest is foundation models and reinforcement learning, including world models for robotics, halluciantion in vision language models, large language model and vision-language model reasoning, etc. My long-term goal is to make agents more efficient and reliable. Before that, I received my Bachelor’s degree in Network Engineering from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC).
I am currently on the industry job market, seeking research scientist positions starting in May 2026. Here is my CV. Please feel free to contact me if you think I could be a good fit.
