About me

I am a final-year master’s student from the School of Artificial Intelligence of Nanjing University and serve as a member of the Natural Language Processing Group, advised by Prof. Xinyu Dai and Prof. Zhen Wu. Previously, I obtained a B.S. degree in the School of Computer Science and Technology at Xidian University. You can find my CV here: Yu Fangxu’s Curriculum Vitae

My research interests lie in machine learning and natural language processing, including

• Sentiment analysis and emotional intelligence
  
• Controllable and constrained text generation
  
• LLM reasoning and planning
