About me

I am currently a research engineer at Epic Games, focusing on AI for game development (i.e. Epic Developer Assistant). Previously, I finished my PhD at Imperial College London, supervised by Prof. Lucia Specia and Dr. Marek Rei. Before starting PhD, I finished my MSc degree in Computing (Artificial Intelligence) with disctinction at Imperial College London, under the supervision of Prof. Lucia Specia. I obtained my BEng degree in Software Engineering from Nanjing University.

Research Interests

I am currently working on AI for gaming, which involves exciting topics such as code generation, synthetic data, agentic system, and gameplay AI. Previously, I worked on robust natural language processing (e.g. handling noisy texts, model biases, and adversarial attacks), text moderation, and multimodal machine translation.
