I’m currently in my fifth year of studying for my Ph.D. in Psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles. I’m fortunate to have Professor Hongjing Lu and Professor Ying Nian Wu as my advisor. Before starting my Ph.D., I earned my B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology under the guidance of Professor Qifeng Chen. I also had the pleasure of spending a fantastic year in the CCVL lab at Johns Hopkins University, working under the mentorship of Professor Alan L. Yuille. Additionally, I gained valuable experience during my internships at Google X and Mineral.ai.
My research focuses on merging machine learning and cognitive science to enhance relational reasoning and visual analogy in AI models. I investigate how humans perceive and reason about relationships and analogies, with the goal of imbuing AI systems with similar cognitive abilities. Through empirical studies and computational modeling, I bridge the gap between human intelligence and artificial intelligence. I hope to contribute to creating more interpretable, robust, and adaptable AI systems while advancing our understanding of human cognition.
