General

I am a third-year master student (the final year) at Peking University, majoring in Speech and Audio Processing. Before that, I received the Bachelor's Degree from Shanghai University in 2020.

My research focus on developing a human-agent that can communicate with human, e.g. understooding human's speech and environments sound, and then producing feedback to humans.
(Note: I plan to begin my PhD Research on The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2023 fall, Supervised by Prof. Helen Meng. I am actively looking for any collaboration opportunities (e.g. NLP, speech synthesis, sound generation, speech/sound separation, sound event detection). Please feel free to contact me.)
