Profile

I am a Ph.D. candidate of System Engineering and Engineering Management Department, The Chinese University of Hong Kong supervised by Prof. Wong Kam-Fai. My research interests focus on natural language processing, large language models, speech recognition, etc.

I'm willing to enjoy a self-motivated, interest-driven Ph.D. study and improve my research skills in various aspects, from innovative and original NLP publications to the accumulation of basic mathematical, programming, and machine learning knowledge.

I'm positively seeking for research internship and exchange opportunities of the laboratoties in universities or companies. Expect collaborations in LLM related research to exchange great ideas and welcome to contact me.

🔭 Research Interests

    ⭐️ Reliable LLMs: Current LLMs are over-confident and suffer from severe hallucination issue which may mislead users with unreliable information practically. I'm focusing on developing reliable AI systems by elicting model's ability to precisely express factual knowledge and confidence estimation.[GitHub]

    ⭐️ Speech Recognition: Previously, I worked on language modeling for speech recognition for lattice decoding and re-scoring.[Notes]

    ⭐️ Collaborations: Prompt Learning, Information Retrieval, Parameter-Efficient, Tool Learning, etc..[Notes]

    ⭐️ Related publications can be referred here.
