National University of Singapore (NUS), Singapore. eyuansu71@gmail.com

I am a 1st-year Ph.D. student at the National University of Singapore (NUS), advised by Prof. Yao Lu.

Previously, I was a researcher at the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI), specializing in the evaluation, alignment, and code intelligence of large language models (LLMs). Previously, I obtained my master’s degree with top honors from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), under the guidance of Prof. Min Yang in 2023. I was a research intern at Alibaba DAMO Academy mentored by Binyuan Hui.

I am a member of the BIRD team, which drives the development of text-to-SQL for real-world database applications.

Throughout my academic journey, I collaborated with many talented researchers, including: Jinyang Li, Duanyu Feng, Binyuan Hui and Yequan Wang.
