Work Experience

Shenzhen Institute of Computing Sciences Research Intern

Conducted research on graph data governance and enhancement, GNN explainability, graph computing systems, and low-resource adaptation of LLMs in large-scale data settings. This work resulted in multiple publications at CCF-A venues, including ACM TODS and IEEE ICDE.

Meituan Algorithm Research Intern · Core Local Commerce / M17

Contributed to web-data cleaning and quality assessment for foundation-model pretraining; deployed a local 7B model and performed full-parameter SFT. The fine-tuned model achieved approximately 96% of the GPT-4 baseline in ROUGE-L and outperformed conventional methods by approximately 6%.
