Biography

I am about to finish my PhD (early 2024) at the University of Tuebingen supervised by professors Hendrik P. A. Lensch and R. Harald Baayen. My research focuses on bridging language with vision. More specifically, I am working on language grounding to vision where I try to inform the language models about the real world through vision to achieve more efficient and more cognitively plausible language models. In this line of research, I am interested in other multimodal tasks such as visual QA and text to image/video where knowledge of both modalities is required.
My free time is mainly occupied by doing sports, making handcrafts, and learning new languages. Feel free to browse around to find out more about me.
