I am a second-year master’s student from College of Computer Science and Technology, Zhejiang University. I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Jiawei Chen and Prof. Can Wang.

My research interests focus on Large Language Models, Recommender Systems and Information Retrieval.

Education

• M.E. in College of Computer Science and Technology, Zhejiang University, 2026 (expected)
• B.E. in College of Information Science and Electronic Engineering, Zhejiang University, 2023
