Bio
Hello! I'm a Master's student at School of Statistics, Renmin University of China under the guidance of Prof. Hongteng Xu and Prof. Hanfang Yang. I'm also a visiting research intern at Carnegie Mellon University, co-advised by Prof. Shixiang (Woody) Zhu and Prof. Holly Wiberg. My research interests lie in machine learning and statistical theories for sequential data modeling and sequential decision making. Specifically, I focus on Bayesian methods, point processes, and learning theory.
News
I will begin my PhD journey in the fall of 2025!
I am very willing to discuss intriguing research ideas with fellow researchers and look forward to engaging in in-depth collaboration, particularly in the areas of sequential data modeling and sequential decision making.
