About

I am a researcher at the Agent Systems Center, Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, where I build scientific-research agent platforms — constructing the scientific tool graph, generating and screening high-quality agent trajectories, and performing agent post-training.

I received my B.Eng. (2023) and M.Eng. (2026) degrees in Biomedical Engineering from Sun Yat-sen University, and spent 2024–2025 as a research assistant in the AI Thrust of the Information Hub at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou).

My research lies at the intersection of AI and healthcare: generative modeling of physiological signals (ECG panorama synthesis and single-lead → 12-lead reconstruction), unobtrusive vital-sign monitoring, and — more recently — AI agents for science.

Selected Projects

Oct 2024 – Sep 2025
Semantic-Aware ECG Panorama Modeling and Generation (Nef-Net v2)

Borrowing ideas from NeRF, implicitly represents 3D electrophysiological signals with a Transformer and fuses semantic information with multi-view 2D modalities for 3D reconstruction. Uses a three-stage training pipeline (pre-training, calibration, fine-tuning); against baselines, achieves ≈6 dB higher PSNR in real-world settings with only half the parameters.

Jan 2023 – Jan 2024
Multi-View Reconstruction of Variable-Duration Time Series

A UNet-based conditional GAN that segments periodic signals into individual cycles to reduce memory cost, lifts signals into a high-dimensional space to generate multi-view representations, and reconstructs signals end-to-end through single-cycle aggregation. Published in BSPC 2024.

Sep 2022 – Aug 2024
Multi-Agent Cloud–Edge Collaboration for Cross-Scenario Cardiac Rehabilitation
National Key R&D Program of China

Processed ECG signals (~1–50 µV) captured by the lab's self-developed armband on a single arm: analyzed noise characteristics for filtering and applied generative models for multi-view probabilistic reconstruction.
