INTERNSHIP & WORK EXPERIENCE

  • Research Intern, Agency For Science and Technology, CFAR, Singapore May 2024 - Aug 2024
    • Explored diffusion-based dataset distillation methods.
    • Investigated the impact of mixing real and synthesized images on model performance.
  • AI Intern, Tencent, Beijing, China Feb 2022 - Jun 2022
    • Proposed and implemented a solution to reduce false positive rates in Tencent Video AI-based Black/Blurred screen detection network; improved model’s recall and accuracy by about 5% after deployment online.
    • Conducted in-depth research and experimentation on diverse loss functions and sampling methods for Tencent News’ large-scale multi-label text classification network, leading to a 3% improvement in precision.
