Short Bio
I am currently a PhD student in Computer Science and Technology at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS) and doing my research at State Key Laboratory of Computer Science, Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences, under the supervision of Prof. Jian Zhang.
From 2024 to 2025, I servied as a visiting PhD student at Stanford University, supervised by Clark Barrett.
Before that, I received my B.S. degree in Computer Science and Technology from Jilin University (JLU) in 2020.
My research interests include the theory, algorithm and application of automated reasoning, constraint solving and optimization, as well as the integration of symbolic reasoning and machine learning.
