I'm a 1st year Ph.D. student in Neuroscience at UT Austin. Prior to that, I received my M.Phil. in Computer Science from HKUST, and B.Eng. in Automation from Tsinghua University, respectively.

My research interests lie in computational neuroscience and reinforcement learning. Currently, I am interested in:

  • representation: principles of unsupervised representation learning in visual/navigation systems;
  • memory & reasoning: organizing the representations as a knowledge graph and reasoning;
  • learning: insights from biological neural networks, e.g., models of the cerebellum.
