I currently work as a Research Fellow in NUS, advised by Prof. Mengling Feng. Before that, I obtained my Ph.D. degree from Xi’an Jiaotong University, under the supervision of Prof. Jun Liu and Prof. Erik Cambria. My research fields involve: Large Language Model, Vision Language Model, Knowledge Reasoning, and Robustness & Security. Moving forward, my focus will be on exploring the potential of AI in multimodal healthcare applications.

Currently, I serve as an Associate Editor for Pattern Recognition (IF 7.6, CCF-B, 一区) and as an Editorial Board Member for Information Fusion (IF 15.5, CAAI-A, 一区). For my full (and timely) publication list, please refer to my Google scholar .

I am seeking self-motivated students/researchers to collaborate on cutting-edge topics in LLM-related research. If you’re interested in my research directions, please feel free to reach out.
