About Me

I am currently in my fourth year as a Ph.D. student in Artificial Intelligence and Music (AIM) program, at the C4DM, QMUL, supervised by Prof. George Fazekas and Prof. Geraint Wiggins. My research is centered around applying deep learning techniques to generate controllable, expressive piano performances, with a specific emphasis on creating pianist-style conditioned outputs. My academic interests span a range of topics, including controllable music generation, modeling of expressive performances, classification of performers, analysis of music performances, and related areas.

Education

• [Sep. 2020 - Now] Ph.D. Student in Artificial Intelligence and Music (AIM) program, at Queen Mary University of London
• [Sep. 2016 - May 2020] Bachelor of Science in Statistics (Data Science Branch), at Chinese Univeristy of Hong Kong, Shenzhen

Research Interests

• Automated Music Generation: controllable music generation, music style transfer, expressive performance rendering, music genration evaluation
• Music Information Retrieval: music performer/composer/style classification, music performance analysis, music transcription, music alignment algorithms
• Machine Learning: deep generative models, contrastive learning, few-shot learning, transfer learning
