About Me

I am currently a PhD student in the School of Physics at Peking University , advised by Prof. Lijing Shao . I received my bachelor's degree from the School of Physics at Peking University. My research focuses on post-training techniques for large language models, particularly reinforcement learning, as well as AI-driven astrophysical data analysis.

Research Interests

My research interests currently center on reinforcement learning for large language models, including training stability, agentic reinforcement learning, and building scientific agents for physics.

I am also interested in statistical inference, the process of using data analysis to infer properties of an underlying probability distribution, and in using AI to accelerate it and broaden its applications.

Statistical Inference

  • Bayesian Inference
  • Tests of Gravity & Gravitational waves
