About Me

I am currently a PhD student in Computer Science at the Cambridge Computer Laboratory, supervised by Prof. Mateja Jamnik. My research is generously supported by the Google PhD Fellowship. My research interest primarily lies at the intersection of structured tabular data and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). In particular, my work focuses on:

  • tabular foundation models
  • tabular generative modelling
  • trustworthy AI solutions for scientific applications

Before joining Cambridge, I was fortunate to work as a research intern on embodied AI at MT Lab and Cola Laboratory under the supervision of Prof. Si Liu.

If you would like to discuss anything related to XAI, structured tabular data, or any other interesting topics, please feel free to reach out via: silencejiang12138 [at] gmail [dot] com.
