I am a postdoctoral researcher at Empirical Inference Department, Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems working with Bernhard Schölkopf. I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Tsinghua University, advised by Jun Zhu and Bo Zhang in December 2020. My research interests are in data-efficient machine learning. I have worked on topics including semi-supervised learning, deep generative models, and approximate inference. I received my B.E. degree from Department of Electronical Engineering at Tsinghua University in 2015. I also received a Bachelor’s degree in Economics from National School of Development of Peking University.
I was a research scientist intern at DeepMind in 2021, working with Silvia Chiappa on conformal inference of individual treatment effects. I was a visiting student at Princeton University working with Ryan P. Adams in 2019. I also spent time at RIKEN-AIP, Tokyo and Google Cloud AI, Beijing as a research intern during my PhD.
