I am an NLP algorithm engineer graduated from Xiamen University with bachelor degree (2015-2019) and Tianjin University with master degree (2019-2022).

My research interests include:

• 🔭 clustering analysis (fuzzy clustering theory and linguistic clustering)
• 🌱 machine translation (text-only and multimodal machine translation)
• 👯 multimodal learning (pretraining technology and reasoning)
• 🌱 large language modeling (infra, multilingual pretrain and efficient universal sft)

I am passionate about specializing in algorithms and fit them into practical applications.
