MASTER'S STUDENT · ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

I am a master's student in Artificial Intelligence at the Hangzhou Institute for Advanced Study, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, advised by Prof. Jungang Xu. I expect to graduate in June 2027. I received my bachelor's degree in Intelligent Science and Technology from Wuhan Institute of Technology in 2024.

My research brings together scientific machine learning, embodied intelligence, and autonomous research agents. I develop physics-aware models for ocean carbon-flux forecasting and study how navigation agents can assess their progress and recover from mistakes. Across these projects, I am interested in systems that use physical structure and feedback to make better predictions and decisions. I also explore agents that plan experiments, interpret results, and iteratively improve scientific models.

I am currently an LLM Algorithm Intern at ByteDance, applying research agents to logistics and supply-chain forecasting for cross-border e-commerce. Previously, I developed an Auto Research framework at Baidu. My earlier work on humanoid robots and a board-game-playing robotic arm shaped my interest in connecting perception, learning, and action—an interest that continues to guide my research today.

05 / BACKGROUND

From robotics to research.

My interest in embodied intelligence began at Wuhan Institute of Technology, where I worked with Tongzhou Zhao and Xun Li.

In the university's robotics laboratory, I worked on humanoid robot vision and control and later led a robotic-arm project for board-game playing using deep learning and reinforcement learning. Those hands-on experiences continue to inform my work on perception, learning, and decision-making.
