Junchi Yu

I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at the Insititute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, advised by Prof. Ran He.

Previouly, I was a research intern at Tencent AI LAB, working with Dr. Tingyang Xu, Dr. Yu Rong, Dr. Yatao Bian and Prof. Junzhou Huang. I was a visiting student at the Department of Computer Science, Yale University, working with Prof. Rex Ying.

I aim to develop Trustworthy Graph Learning (TwGL) methods with good interpretability and transferability, and explore their biochemistry applications. Recently I also try to extend the success in graph learning to complex reasoning with Large Language Models (LLMs).

I am awarded the President Award of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), which is known as the highest award for graduate students in CAS.

Improve the complex reasoning ability of LLMs in the graph, text, and 3D world by analogical reasoning.
