I am a Master's student in Psychology at Zhejiang University, advised by Prof. Jifan Zhou (Young Changjiang Scholar) and Prof. Mowei Shen (Changjiang Distinguished Professor). I have published multiple first-author papers in top international journals and conferences in psychology and CS, including Cognition, ACM/IEEE HRI, etc., with substantial work currently under review.

My research interests are broad, focusing on how intelligent systems (robots, LLMs, etc.) can be endowed with minds—through large-scale online behavioral experiments in human-machine interaction and cognitive modeling. Recently, my work centers on test-time optimization in LLM reasoning.

Interests

• Human-Agent Interaction: Understanding the psychological processes underlying human interactions with intelligent systems (robots, LLMs), including perspective-taking, trust, and social perception
• Social & Visual Cognition: Investigating mechanisms underlying social cognitive processes (e.g., joint attention) and visual processing (e.g., appearance-based affordance)
• LLM Optimization: Identifying LLM-human cognitive gaps and enhancing LLM reasoning via psychology-informed computational methods (e.g., test-time optimization)
