About Me

I am a Research Fellow in the Automated Program Repair group at NUS, working with Professor Abhik Roychoudhury.
I defended my PhD in May 2023, supervised by Associate Professor Chin Wei Ngan. I got my Master's degree from School of Computing (Soc), NUS in 2018.
I got my Bachelor's degree in computer science from Sun Yat-sen University (China) in 2017.
My research interests are Formal Verification/Program Analyses, Specification Inference, Automated Repair, Temporal Logic, and Separation Logic.
