About Me

I was born and raised in Nanjing, China. I would pursue my M.Eng degree in Software Institute, Nanjing University, under the supervision of Associate Prof. Chunrong Fang. I’m also a member of NJU-iSE-Lab led by Prof. Zhenyu Chen. Before joining Nanjing University, I received my B.Eng degree from Nantong University, supervised by Prof. Xiang Chen.

My research interests lie at the intersection of machine learning and software engineering. Such as:

  • AI & Testing (AI4Testing & Testing4AI)
  • Large Language Models (LLM4SE & SE4LLM)
  • Code Intelligence

Specifically, I am interested in the following problems and techniques:

  • Programming Analysis and Synthesis
  • Machine Learning System
  • Fuzz Testing
  • Prompt Learning/Tuning
  • Reinforcement Learning

More about me & Hobbies

Traveling

Since my childhood, my dream has been to travel around the world. Behold more enchanting landscapes, and encounter many new souls. The young soul dreams of horizons far and wide, fearless of the obstacles on the long path ahead.

Strategy & Gaming

I am a big fan of Strategy & Gaming (e.g., Chess, Chinese Chess, Teamfight Tactics). My TFT (Teamfight Tactics) rank is Master (超凡大师)😎 in China. Welcome someone to play a game with me.

Reading

In one's journey through life, the embrace of reading is the most cherished fortune. Even if overwhelmed by the life😭, I will find time to read some interesting books. One of my most recommended books is The Worlds I See by Fei-Fei Li which inspired me a lot.

BrainStorming

Beautiful faces may be found in plenty, but fascinating souls are rare as stars. I love brainstorming with others who have similar thinking with me and always believe that the collision of ideas can stimulate the source of creativity.
