NYU Courant Institute (Shanghai Track) · Mar 2026 - Present- Supervisors: Prof. Zhaonan Wang & Prof. Takahiro Yabe
- Developing an LLM-driven agent persona framework to infer human mobility behaviors, benchmarking the upper bound of LLMs’ urban spatial understanding capabilities.
- Student Researcher
New York University, New York · June 2025 - Present- Time-Series Representation Learning: Investigated the role of adaptive masking in eliminating data redundancy for time-series forecasting. This research led to a dynamic masking loss framework with representation consistency constraints that challenged conventional long-sequence information hypotheses and significantly improved prediction accuracy.
- Advanced Positional Encoding: Researched and developed novel positional encoding methods to enhance the representation of high-dimensional data within neural network architectures, leading to a proposed Generalized ROPE for n-dimensional position embedding.
- Undergraduate Researcher
Dalian Jiaotong University, Dalian · Dec 2022 - July 2024- Led a 5-member multidisciplinary team to develop a first-place award-winning autonomous vehicle system, integrating Mecanum wheel chassis, custom PCB with NXP RT1064 microcontroller, MobileNetV2-based computer vision, and robotic arm automation for intelligent objective sorting and storage tasks.
- Full-stack Developer
SnowFox Tech Co., Ltd. · Nov 2022 - June 2023- Developed a real-time motion capture system with sensor fusion firmware, 3D biomechanical analytics, and edge-deployed machine learning.
