About me
I am a research scientist at NVIDIA Research. I just obtained my Ph.D. in 2024 from the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), advised by Prof. Han Zhao and Prof. Bo Li. Previously, I obtained my B.S. in 2019 from UIUC with double majors in (1) Physics, (2) Statistics & Computer Science.
In the past, I have worked on multi-task learning, out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization, domain adaptation and meta-learning. Besides, I have adapted transformers to solve quantum computing problems in Amazon (Paper).
Lately, I have been focusing on large language models and multi-modal models, improving their reliability, efficiency, and controllability. Please check out the following paper list for details.
