Hello, I am Zeru, a first year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Rutgers University. I am honored to be guided by Prof.Ruixiang Tang. I received my B.E. degree in Software Engineering at Dalian University of Technology

My research interests mainly focus on:

  • LLM/VLM Reasoning and Post-training: I am highly interested in post-training for LLMs and VLMs. My focus is on developing more effective reinforcement learning algorithms, as well as leveraging simple and interpretable methods, to improve reasoning capabilities through post-training.
  • Agentic AI: I am also interested in Agentic AI, especially in the design of agent memory. I am particularly drawn to a storage centric perspective, where memory is treated as a first-class component. My goal is to build principled memory systems that can significantly enhance agents’ capabilities in complex reasoning and real world problem solving.

I am always open to research collaborations. If you are interested in my previous work or would like to discuss potential ideas, please feel free to contact me.
