I am a computer science Ph.D. student at Yale University advised by Professor Rex Ying.
Before that, I obtained my B.S. degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) in 2022. I majored in mathematics and applied mathematics (Zhiyuan Honors Program).
I am generally interested in Large Language Models (LLMs) and Graph Foundation Models (GFMs), including:
- Developing scalable foundation models tailored for diverse graph-structured data
- Designing efficient Graph Retireval Augmented Generation (RAG) to enhance LLM reasoning abilities
- Applying advanced graph models to real-world applications, such as retail product networks and recommendation systems
- Advancing LLM capabilities in temporal reasoning and time series forecasting
- Improving AI models in terms of trustworthiness, transparency, and reliability
If you share similar interests or work in related areas, feel free to reach out. I am always open to collaboration!
