Hi! I am now a PhD student at the Nanyang Technological University, CCDS, supervised by Prof. Erik Cambria.
🤔 My research interests include multimodal spatial intelligence methods and their downstream applications on cross-fields. I keep collaboration with my friends Dr. Hao Li on Multi-Modal Tasks, Dr. Shuai Zhao on LLMs-related Tasks, and Dr. Xinyi Wu on AI4Education. Specifically, I aim to develop models that emulate human reasoning and enhance human productivity.
🤝 Looking for collaboration. If you are interested in working with me on AI tasks or AI4Sci tasks, please drop me an email.
