I am currently a first-year CS PhD student at Cornell University advised by Prof. Claire Cardie. Previously, I was a research assistant at Carnegie Mellon University supervised by Prof. Zhihao Jia. I obtained master degree at Tsinghua University supervised by Prof. Yong Jiang. My research interests include data stream structure and algorithms design, programmable switches, machine learning, and large language models. I received my Bachelor's degree at the CS department of Xidian University, where I was supervised by Prof. Yuesheng Xu.
