About Me: I am a senior data scientist in Walmart Inc. Previously, I got my Ph.D. from the EECS department at University of Arkansas, advised by Prof. Lu Zhang. And I obtained my M.S. and B.ENG. from the college of computer at Sichuan University in China.
Research Interest: Currently, I have been working on retrieval augmented generation (RAG) for LLMs. During my PhD, my research primarily focused on fair machine learning and causal inference. Specifically, I proposed various fairness algorithms to achieve long-term fairness in sequential decision-making. My interests also include generative models, reinforcement learning, natural language processing.
