Biography

I am a M.Sc. student of TSAIL Group in the Department of Computer Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Jun Zhu. My research interests lie within the expansive fields of machine learning and deep learning. Recently, I've been interested in deep generative models and their rich applications for controllable multimodal generation.

Before that, I received my B.Sc. degree from Instituto Superior Técnico. I also spent some time at Amazon Web Services, and at the SAILING Lab, Machine Learning Department, Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. Zhiting Hu and Prof. Eric Xing.
