About me

Hi! I am a tenure-track assistant professor in the School of Computer Science and Technology of Shandong University, as a member of the Information Retrieval Lab. I got my Ph.D degree at Wangxuan Institute of Computer Technology (WICT), Peking University, supervised by Prof. Rui Yan and Prof. Dongyan Zhao. I’m working on pre-train language models, LLM-based agents, and tool learning.

Prospective students: I am looking for highly motivated PhD students, masters, and interns (local and remote). If you are interested in working with me on pre-train language models, LLM-based agents, and tool learning, please send me an email with your CV. (shengao at pku.edu.cn)
