About me

I have been pursuing a PhD in Computer Science at the University of Birmingham since December 2023, co-supervised by Assoc. Prof. Shuo Wang, Assoc. Prof. Grant Wilson, and Dr. Holger Schöner (Siemens). Before that, I obtained my master’s degree from the Australian National University and my bachelor’s degree from Nanjing University of Science and Technology.

My research focuses on time series forecasting, RAG, AI agents, and multimodal learning. I am collaborating with researchers at Siemens in Germany and exploring applications of this research within the University of Birmingham’s smart campus. Through this work, I hope to help people better understand and anticipate the possible futures of a complex world.

Current Research Focuses

(1) Time series forecasting, including multi-modal forecasting and agentic forecasting.
(2) RAG, including RAG in time series and LLM.
(3) Machine learning applications in complex real-world data, including building energy analysis.
