Welcome to my homepage! :D 🥂

About me 👩‍🎓

I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science and Engineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, supervised by Prof. Yangqiu Song. Prior to my postgraduate studies, I received my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Technology from Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen) in 2024. During my undergraduate study, I did research under the guidance of Prof. Baotian Hu.

I’m mainly interested in the research of Natural Language Processing.

You can also find my publications on my Google Scholar profile.
