👋 I am currently pursuing an M.S. in Computer Science at Northeastern University. My research interests include NLP, information retrieval, Retrieval-Augmented Generation, recommender systems, and multi-agent systems. You can find my publications on my Google Scholar profile Google Scholar citations: 56 .

🎓 I received my B.S. in Computer Science from Harbin Engineering University. My research is carried out at NEUIR Lab, under the guidance of Associate Professor Zhenghao Liu. I also collaborate closely with Qiyuan Lab Qiyuan Lab, ModelBest ModelBest, and TsinghuaNLP TsinghuaNLP, and am mentored by Associate Researcher Yukun Yan.
