Short Bio

I am a research scientist at Google, Mountain View. My research interest focuses on AI-driven Human-Computer Interaction, where I employ advanced AI techniques like reinforcement learning, generative AI and large language models to enhance user input experiences.

Before joining Google, I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Stony Brook University under the supervision of Prof. Xiaojun Bi. I received the M.E. degree and B.E. degree both in Computer Science from Hangzhou Dianzi University.
