Hi, I'm Haoquan, a fresh phd student studying at SphereLab, CUHK, advised by Weiyang Liu. I am also a visiting student at Westlake University, advised by Yandong Wen. Previously, I spend wonderful time in Shanghai, where I was an intern at Shanghai AI Lab, mentored by Kaipeng Zhang.

My research interests lie in (M)LLM and Computer Vision. I'm also fascinated by Interpretability (or Physics of AI? Whatever 🤷) and Representation Learning. In addition, I draw inspiration from neuroscience and cognitive science, which offer valuable perspectives on how intelligence emerges from complex systems.
