I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate in Data Science and Analytics at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, co-advised by Prof. Jia Li and Prof. Xiaofang Zhou. Before my doctoral studies, I earned an M.Eng. in Computer Technology from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, where I was advised by Prof. Jiaqi Zhu. I have also gained research experience through internships at the Microsoft Research Asia, where I collaborated with Dr. Shun Zheng and Dr. Jiang Bian, and as an NLP Algorithm Engineer Intern at the Multi-Media Understanding Group at Kwai Technology, working with Dr. Yuanyuan Zhao.
My research focuses on time series forecasting and foundation models, with particular interest in irregularly-sampled time series, cross-domain transfer, and robust forecasting. I aim to develop generalizable methods to tackle the challenges of complex, real-world temporal data.
I expect to graduate in 2026 and am currently seeking full-time opportunities across research, applied science, and related roles. Feel free to reach out if you’re interested in connecting or collaborating.
