Research Interests
- I am interested in researching human-oriented content creation aided by large models,
with a focus on instructed music and video generation.- An ideal model should accept multimodal inputs and take copyright into account.
- The composer should retain control over every fine-grained aspect of the final product.
- I am also willing to learn from multiple disciplines, including but not limited to
music theory, high-performance programming, and computer security.
