I am a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Computing, PolyU. My current research interest is LLM-based Multi-agent Systems, AI in Education, and AI in Healthcare. Meanwhile, I am also interested in integrating personality and emotion into LLM-based dialog systems to enable conversational AI to generate human-like responses.
I got my Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Jiannong Cao in 2023 (Defense slide).
During my Ph.D. study, I visited (duration: 2021.09.01~2022.03.01) the THUNLP lab in Tsinghua University, under the supervision of Prof. Maosong Sun.
Before that, I had a 5-month internship at Huawei, Shenzhen; Dr. Jieming Zhu was my mentor. We conducted research on semantic matching and design and apply algorithm for duplicated bug report detection.
Previously, I was a research assistant at InPlusLab, Sun Yat-sen University, under the supervision of Prof. Zibin Zheng.
