Fall down seven times, stand up eight

I am a first-year Ph.D. student at The University of Texas at Austin being advised by Professor Junyi Jessy Li.

My research interests lie in evaluating and refining large language models (LLMs) for expert and high-stakes domains, with an emphasis on factuality and understandability. More broadly, I am interested in developing highly adaptable and trustworthy Artificial Intelligence systems that can be efficiently customized for specialized domains.
