πŸ§‘β€πŸŽ“ Biography

I am a third-year undergraduate student in the Department of Computer Science and Technology at Tsinghua University(THU) 🚒. I maintain an academic record with a GPA of $\text{3.94/4.0}$, ranking $\text{12th}$ out of $\text{173}$ students. πŸ“Š

Currently, I am conducting research as a student researcher in Professor Alex Lamb’s lab, focusing on the critical and evolving field of LLM Reasoning πŸ’‘. My research interests center on techniques to enhance the performance and accessibility of Generative Models, especially the following listed fields:

  • Diffusion Model Compression and Quantization πŸ’Ύ
  • Structured LLM Reasoning 🧠
  • Diffusion LLM πŸš€

I am passionate about exploring methods to build powerful yet resource-conscious AI systems that push the boundaries of computational efficiency. ⚑
