About Me

I am currently a research scientist at Aural & Language Intelligence Department, I2R, A*STAR. Before joing A*STAR, I was a research fellow at National University of Singapore (NUS) working with Prof. Haizhou Li from 2021-2023. I received my Ph.D. degree from University of Southern California (USC) supervised by Prof. C.-C. Jay Kuo in 2021. My bachelor's degree is obtained from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) in 2017.
In my life, I started from signal processing, then moved to machine learning and natural language processing. I am interested in the wide application and technologies behind multimodal AI. I enjoy discussion with brillient minds and learn new skills.
