BIOGRAPHY

I am a second-year PhD student at UC San Diego department of Computer Science and Engineering advised by Prof. Rose Yu, previously at Northeastern University. I received my Bachelor degree of science in Applied Mathematics from Huazhong University of Science and Technology. My research interests are in spatiotemporal learning and physics-guided deep learning. Here is my resume.
