📍 Shenzhen, China · Tsinghua SIGS
I am an M.S. student at the Knowledge Engineering Lab at Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School, supervised by Prof. Haitao Zheng. My research interests lie in large language models, vision-language reasoning, information retrieval, and training data construction. I received my B.Eng. in Computer Science from Huazhong Agricultural University. I previously interned at SenseTime's SenseNova team, focusing on mathematical reasoning, and at JD JoyAI with Dr. Jiaqi Wang, working on foundation models for coding agents.

Academic Service
Research Experience
- Building pretraining data pipelines for the code domain, including high-quality code data collection for pretraining and mid-training stages.
- Restructured GitHub commit data processing pipelines and studied how data distribution impacts code generation capability.
- Proposed a multimodal issue localization benchmark, extending software engineering fault localization to scenarios involving UI screenshots and complex error logs.
- Focused on math reasoning enhancement for LLM foundation models via data-centric approaches.
- Designed RL-based hard-problem synthesis strategies, producing the MathSmith dataset and leading to a first-author paper at AAAI 2026.
- Contributed to VLM foundation model iteration for the "photo-solve" product line. Identified VLM spatial reasoning gaps, leading to the first-author paper 3ViewSense.
