I am a Ph.D student of computer science at the College of Computer Science and Technology, National University of Defense Technology, advised by Prof. Kaijun Ren (任开军) and Associate Prof. Boheng Duan (段博恒). I also collaborate with Lei Bai (白磊) and Ben Fei (费奔) losely. I am now working on AI for Earth. For example, deep learning-based data assimilation, end-to-end weather forecasting foundation models.

I won the Lei Jun Scholarship (雷军奖学金) of Wuhan Univerisity (School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering, Class of 2016, Top 1) in 2019.

My research interests include spatial-temporal forecasting, data assimilation, foundation model, and deep learning. I have published 15 papers in top journals and conferences with total 63 citations.
