PI at ELLIS Institute Tübingen and a group leader at Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems.
Hi, I am an PI at ELLIS Institute Tübingen and a group leader at Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems. Previously, I was a Royal Society Newton International Fellow at University of Oxford, and a Junior Research Fellow (JRF) at Somerville College. I was a postdoctoral fellow at UT Austin, working with Atlas Wang. I obtained my Ph.D. at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), the Netherlands, under the supervision of Mykola Pechenizkiy and Decebal Constantin Mocanu.
My overarching research goal is to advance the frontiers of artificial intelligence from multiple perspectives, including but not limited to enhance the capabilities of large foundation models (pre-training and post-training), improve the efficiency and accessibility of AI, develop deeper fundamental understanding of deep learning behavior, and exploring novel architectural designs, and better data curation.
