Hi, I'm Wang Shida(汪铈达).

I'm a final year Ph.D. candidate at math department, National University of Singapore (NUS).
I'm fortunate to be advised by Professor Li Qianxiao. Before that, I studied applied math at Fudan University.
My research interests are about sequence modelling in machine learning, language models and nonlinear systems.

Educational Background:
Ph.D. in Mathematics, National University of Singapore, Singapore, 2020-2024
B.S. in Mathematics, Fudan University, Shanghai, China, 2016-2020
