About me

I am a third-year undergraduate student in the School of Computer Science and Technology at HUST. I began my research journey while collaborating with Prof. Yao Wan at HUST, and join his undergraduate team, ONE Lab. At present, I am working with Prof. Tianyi Zhou at UMD. I am currently seeking a Ph.D position in Machine Learning for Fall 2026.

My research interests lie in Machine Learning and Large Language Model, especially on

• Reasoning: reasoning interpretability, MLLM reasoning, reward hack.
• World Model & Reinforcement Learning: Self-evolution, RLVR.
• Trustworthy AI : interpretability, knowledge editing.

Here is my CV. Please feel free to contact me!
