Hello! I am a master’s student in Computer Science and Technology at the Machine Intelligence and Translation Lab (Language Technology Research Center), Harbin Institute of Technology, under the supervision of Prof. Tiejun Zhao.

My research focuses on Multimodal Large Language Models, Multi-Agent Systems, Multilingual LLMs, and Multimodal Reasoning.

I am interested in open-source software and Linux.
