I am a third-year Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at the Australian National University (ANU), supervised by Xiaoyu Sun, Zhenchang Xing, and Alwen Tiu. Prior to joining ANU, I received my bachelor’s degree from Jiangxi Normal University. My research interests include AI Agents, Intelligent Software Engineering, and Knowledge Graphs. I have published papers in top conferences and journals such as ICSE/ASE/ICML/TSE/TOSEM/TKDE. I am open to collaborations and discussions with researchers and practitioners who share similar interests. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in collaboration opportunities.
