I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, supervised by Prof. Shinji Watanabe. I received my bachelor’s degree from the Department of Electronic Engineering at Tsinghua University in 2020. My research focuses on deep learning-based end-to-end speech processing. Specifically, I have worked on these topics: developing novel speech encoder architectures, compressing large pre-trained speech models, and training speech foundation models including speech language models.
