Hello!
I’m currently pursuing my PhD degree in the Department of Applied Mathematics at Hong Kong Polytechnic University, under the supervision of Prof. Defeng Sun and Prof. Houduo Qi. Prior to this, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree from Northwest University and my Master’s degree from Wuhan University. I am grateful for the guidance provided by my Master’s supervisor, Prof. Yuling Jiao.
My current research interests lie in statistical learning and deep learning theory, particularly in deep representation learning, self-supervised learning, and the theoretical foundations for large language models (LLMs). I focus on establishing theoretical understandings and developing novel approaches in these areas.
If you are interested in my work, please feel free to contact me at vincen.nwu@gmail.com.
