Bio

I am currently a PhD student at School of CS, the University of Sydney (USYD), under the supervision of Prof. Dacheng Tao. Before that, I received BEng from SASEE, Beihang University and MPhil in Computer Science from USYD in 2019 and 2022, respectively. My research interests include data-centric AI, knowledge extraction of large-scale datasets, and deep learning theory.
