I am a final year undergraduate at CUHK-Shenzhen, majoring in Computer Science and Engineering. During my undergraduate studies, I have been fortunate to be advised by Prof. Benyou Wang and to collaborate closely with Prof. Honghai Yu’s team at Nanjing University. I was also a member of TheFinAI, led by Jimin Huang. Prior to that, I had the opportunity to work with Prof. Jianfeng Mao.

If you are interested in my research or have any questions, please feel free to contact and schedule time with me.

• 04/2025: Invited talk at the Advances in Financial AI Workshop @ ICLR 2025 and NUS in Singapore 🇸🇬.
• 03/2025: TwinMarket was accepted to {Financial AI; World Models} @ ICLR 2025 Workshop.
• 02/2025: Our new work on socio-economic simulation, TwinMarket, has been released.
• 01/2025: One paper (UCFE-Benchmark) was accepted to NAACL Findings 2025.
• 08/2024: A financial foundation model, FinLLaMA-8B, and a multimodal model, FinLLaVA-8B, were released.
• 03/2024: My first publication (FAST-CA) was accepted to Information Fusion 2024. You can find the paper here.

Previously, my research was focused on:
(1) Data Mining: Spatial-Temporal Modeling (FAST-CA), Social Computing
(2) Large Language Model: Human-Machine Interaction (UCFE-Benchmark), Agent System (TwinMarket), AI for Scientific Applications (Open-FinLLMs)

My vision to build reliable and trustworthy AI systems that bridge the gap between machines and the real world. My focus is on enabling (vision) language model to interact more reliable with humans and their environments, empowering them to understand and simulate the underlying principles of the world. Additionally, I strive to uncover the internal mechanisms of language model to demystify their "black-box" nature, making AI more interpretable, transparent, and aligned with human values. Through my research, I hope to contribute to the development of AI systems that are not only intelligent but also responsible, ethical, and deeply integrated into our daily lives.
