Zichuan Liu | 刘子川

Hi! I am with Apple AIML. I completed my master at Nanjing University, supervised by Prof. Chunlin Chen, and I am privileged to work closely with Dr. Wei Cheng and A/Prof. Dongsheng Luo, et.al. I have also spent time at Microsoft Research, advised by Dr. Lei Song and managed by Dr. Jiang Bian. Before that, I was a research intern at DAMO Academy of Alibaba Group, advised by Dr. Qingsong Wen. Previously, I completed my B.S. in Computer Science at Wuhan University of Technology, working with A/Prof. Rui Zhang.

My research interests focus on Reinforcement Learning, eXplainable Artificial Intelligence, and Trustworthy LLMs, especially with applications in multiple sequences, offline models, and dynamic environments, allowing them to explicitly adapt to non-stationary task distributions in real-world. For your information, please see my research statement.
