My research spans machine learning algorithms and applications. I am working on data-efficient learning, which includes transfer learning, semi-supervised learning and multi-task learning. I am also interested in related topics in machine learning and deep learning, such as foundation models, time series analysis and multi-modal learning.

I am currently an Assistant Professor in School of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen). I received my Ph.D. degree from School of Software, Tsinghua University, advised by Mingsheng Long. I received my B.S. degree from Department of Electrical Engineering, Tsinghua University.

Recruit

I'm recruiting self-motivated master students and undergraduate students who have strong mathematical abilities and coding skills to work with me on machine learning related research topics. Welcome to send me your detailed resume!
