Super excited to be joining Harvard as an assistant professor in Fall 2025 in Kempner Institute at Harvard University and Computer Science!! I will be hiring students this upcoming cycle -- come join our quest to build the next generation of AI systems!


Great work led by Boyuan Chen! My favorite part is that we break sequence-level diffusion models into a composition of per-transition models. This allows for much more data-efficient learning, trajectory stitching, and the simulation of infinitely long sequences!



I'll be presenting 3 papers at ICML Conference! - Position Paper on Compositional Generative Modeling arxiv.org/abs/2402.01103 - Composing Language Models through Multiagent Debate composablemodels.github.io/llm_debate/ - Combing Diffusion Models / EBMs for Reasoning energy-based-model.github.io/ired/

We're organizing a workshop on compositional learning at NeurIPS Conference! Compositional generalization remains a huge problem in current models which often fail to generalize to unseen environments. Submit your work in this area to our workshop!
