Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence
I am a third-year undergraduate student at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), pursuing a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science with an Extended Major in Artificial Intelligence.
- My research interests lie in Large Language Models (LLMs), including LLM decision-making, uncertainty quantification, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems.
- Recently, I have been exploring Tool-use Agents and their applications in agentic AI settings.
- I am actively looking for summer 2026 research internship opportunities. Feel free to reach out!
Currently, I am on a semester exchange at The University of Texas at Austin, where I am taking advanced courses in Software Engineering and Edge AI.
đ Research
Revealing Instability of Decision-Making under Epistemic Uncertainty
First Author
- Designed a three-stage experiment to evaluate LLM decision-making, benchmarking model behaviors against Prospect Theory axioms such as Loss Aversion and Asymmetric Risk Preferences
- Revealed that modeling these systems with economic frameworks is not consistently reliable, particularly under diverse linguistic forms, highlighting potential Model Risk and instability
Noise-Aware Verbal Confidence Calibration for LLMs in RAG Systems
Co-first Author
- Developed NAACL, a framework that resolves RAG overconfidence by training models to explicitly discern retrieval noise and calibrate their verbal confidence
