About Me

Bio

I am an independent AI researcher working on novel approaches to machine general intelligence beyond current LLM paradigms. I hold an undergraduate degree from Tsinghua University and a master’s degree from Duke University. Outside of work, I spend time on lifting and video games.

Research Overview

At a very high level, my current research areas are:

  • Inductive biases in architectural design for better reasoning and generalization
  • The intersection between neural and symbolic approaches
  • Memory, continual learning, and reinforcement learning

I approach research with:

  • Close coupling between conceptual exploration and implementation/experimentation
  • Simplicity as a prior in both research and engineering
  • Intellectual independence and interdisciplinary curiosity

I am currently building Iter Labs (iter as in journey in latin and iter() in python), an early-stage independent research vehicle for developing and experimenting with my research ideas.
