Computer Science B.S. and M.S. @ Stanford University
Research Intern @ Google Research
I graduated from Stanford with B.S. (Honors) and M.S. degrees in Computer Science, where I did research in the Stanford Vision and Learning Lab and HCI group with the wonderful Prof. Ranjay Krishna, Prof. Michael Bernstein, and Prof. Fei-Fei Li. I've had research and engineering experience in multi-agent collaboration under reinforcement learning, large language and vision models, and human-computer interaction. My current research interests lie in human-AI interaction and collaboration, vision-language models as well as their compositionality and interpretability.
Recent highlights
- [Sep, 2022] Our paper ELIGN: Expectation Alignment as a Multi-agent Intrinsic Reward has been accepted to NeurIPS 2022!
- [Jun, 2022] I'm grateful that my undergraduate honors thesis Towards More Effective Multi-agent Coordination via Alignment has received the Firestone Medal for Excellence in Undergraduate Research and the Ben Wegbreit Prize for Undergraduate CS Research.
