I am currently a 1^st-year Ph.D. student at the College of Computer Science, Nankai University, working under the supervision of Professor Yong Qin. I transitioned directly from the master’s program in September 2024, after joining Nankai University in 2022. Before that, I earned my B.E. degree from Dalian University of Technology (DUT) in 2022. My research interests include:

Automatic Speech Recognition
Domain Adaptation
Large Language Models

🔥 News

2025.07: 🎉🎉 We propose DIFFA, the first diffusion-based Large Audio-Language Model designed to perform spoken language understanding.
