li-yn25 AT mails.tsinghua.edu.cn

I am a second-year master’s student at Qiuzhen College of Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Gao Huang and working closely with Dongchen Han. I received my bachelor’s degree with honor from the Mathematics Experimental Class at Qian Xuesen College, Xi’an Jiaotong University. I also spent one semester at UC Berkeley as an exchange student.

My research primarily focuses on the architecture of foundation models. I am also broadly interested in continual learning.
