Passion and Thinking are always my best teachers

I'm particularly interested in Explainable AI (now about generative foundation models). I'm very obsessed with exploring and understanding everything! In this era, AI is dependent on data-driven deep learning methods, which is inexplicable and uncontrollable. I believe that theory-guided intelligence is the future of AI. My goal is to embrace the AGI via theory4practice methods!🌞The most noteworthy thing is that I'm a devoted advocate of Slow Science, or rather, a faithful of Thinking.

Currently, I'm an incoming CS PhD student at UW-Madison. Before it, I was a Research Assistant advised by Prof. Yang Yuan at IIIS, THU (Category/ML Theory & Explainable AI 2023.05 ~ 2023.05). I start my research working on multimodal learning (2021.11~2023.06).

Note: Since now is the Oppenheimer Time of AI, I become actively seeking like-minded collaborators from both Theory and Practice aspects - If you think we have the same reseach goal and style, please feel free to contact me! :)
