🤵🏻 About Me

I am a researcher with research interests in artificial intelligence and machine learning. I obtained my Ph.D. degree from Department of Computer Science and Technology in Nanjing University in June 2022, where I was very fortunate to be advised by professor Yu-Feng Li (李宇峰). Currently, I am an Assistant Professor in School of Intelligence Science and Technology, Nanjing University (Suzhou Campus). I am also a member of LAMDA Group (机器学习与数据挖掘研究所), which is led by professor Zhi-Hua Zhou (周志华).

📖 Research

The long-term research goal of our team is to enhance the reasoning and planning capabilities of AI models in both digital and physical worlds, contributing to the advancement of artificial general intelligence (AGI). Our core approach is neuro-symbolic learning, which bridges data-driven machine learning with knowledge-driven symbolic reasoning — often regarded as the hallmark of third-generation AI. The neural component provides grounding in perception and physical interaction, while the symbolic component augments reasoning and planning.

Recently, our research has primarily focused on Multi-Modal Reasoning and Planning with (Multi-Modal) Large Language Models (e.g., LLM, VLM, VLA, VLN, etc.), addressing challenges across high-quality reasoning data construction, model training/fine-tuning via SFT and RL, and inference. Potential applications include, but are not limited to, Visual Reasoning and Planning, Game Agent, Embodied Planning, Tool-Use/LLM-Agent, AI4Math, Domain-Specific Large Models, etc.
