About me
I am currently a Research Fellow at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), working with Prof. Kelin Xia.
Previously, I was a Research Fellow at the National University of Singapore (NUS), supervised by Prof. Xinchao Wang. I received my Ph.D. degree from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), where I was supervised by Prof. Chuan Shi. I also collaborate with Prof. Xiao Wang at Beihang University.

Research Summary (More)
My current research primarily focuses on Deep Spectral Learning.
I am interested in developing spectral tools or models with principled mathematics. Below are some representative topics and works.
Spectral Analysis of Data: Unified Dataset Distillation (ICLR 2026), Spectral Graph Distillation (ICML 2024)
Spectral Graph Neural Networks: Full-spectrum GNN (ICML 2026), Specformer (ICLR 2023), Frequency-adaptive GCN (AAAI 2021)
I also work on generative models and their post-training on scientific data.
- Generative Models for Science: Graph-GRPO (ICML 2026)
Beyond that, I have preliminary ideas on the spectral analysis of LLMs, including parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT), model merging, and spectral optimization (e.g., Muon). Feel free to email me if you are interested.
