Biography

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Melbourne, where I also completed a Master’s degree in Data Science. My doctoral research is supervised by Dr. Mingming Gong and co-supervised by Dr. Wei Huang , Dr. Xi Geng, and Dr. Biwei Huang. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics from Shandong Normal University. Before my studies at the University of Melbourne, I worked for over three years at Microsoft MSN and Baidu, focusing on data analysis and digital marketing.

My research focuses on causal reasoning in dynamical systems, particularly those governed by Ordinary and Stochastic Differential Equations (ODEs/SDEs). I am also interested in generative modeling, with a particular emphasis on diffusion-based approaches.
