Husband, researcher, poet and singer.

Or just a dumb bunny.

PhD Candidate @ UCLA Pluslab under supervision of Prof. Nanyun (Violet) Peng

As a researcher, my research mainly focuses on controllable generation, including both evolutionary approaches for better control over causal, autoregressive language models and revolutionary approaches to build Non-autoregressive language models.

As a poet, my work are mainly identified as modern misty poetry that mainly question the very essence of life and death .

As an (amateur) singer, I'm generally interested in R&B, thrash metal and pop rock, especially those from 1990s. .

I generally identify myself as an agnostic antheist but I have a strong interest in studying the history of religions and cultures, especially those related to Christianity.
