Hi! I am a 3rd-year undergraduate at Zhiyuan College (Honor, Top 10%), Shanghai Jiao Tong University. My academic journey has been enriched by several research experiences. Most recently, I was a research intern at National University of Singapore, collaborating with Dr. Zhaomin Wu and Mr. Junyi Hou under the supervision of Prof. Bingsheng He. Before that, I worked as an undergraduate researcher at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, working alongside Mr. Zhihui Xie, mentored by Prof. Shuai Li and Dr. Tong Yu. I’ve also had the privilege of collaborating with Prof. Bao-Liang Lu and Prof. Wei-Long Zheng.

Besides research, I’ve excelled in competitive programming, winning awards in OI, ICPC, CCPC and various other contests, under the guidance of Prof. Yong Yu. See my CV for details.

My research interests are primarily focused on Large Language Models and Foundation Models. I’m always eager to engage in discussions about these topics, so please feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat!

Model-Based Privacy-Preserving Knowledge Transfer for Large Language Models

Zhaomin Wu*, Jizhou Guo*, Junyi Hou, Bingsheng He, Lixin Fan, Qiang Yang

Under review

[arXiv]

  • Proposed Llamdex, a novel framework that integrates privacy-preserving, domain-specific models into LLMs.
  • Demonstrated significant performance gains in domain-specific tasks, with up to 26% accuracy improvement while maintaining differential privacy guarantees.
  • Achieved comparable inference efficiency to base LLMs while enhancing domain-specific capabilities.

Calibrating Reasoning in Language Models with Internal Consistency

Zhihui Xie, Jizhou Guo, Tong Yu, Shuai Li

NeurIPS 2024

[arXiv] [poster] [code]

  • Developed a novel “internal consistency” approach to calibrate reasoning in LLMs, resulting in a significant boost in reasoning performance without requiring additional training.
  • Conducted in-depth analysis of Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning in LLMs through the lens of internal representations.
