About

I am a full-time research assistant at the Multilingual Intelligent Mind Service Lab (Mi2S) at National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), working with Prof. Wen-Hsiang Lu. I completed my bachelor's degree in NCKU's Cross College Elite Program in 2026.

My current work is on speech and language systems for healthcare, where one misrecognized word can reverse what a patient meant. I am the first author of DRPF, an evaluation framework that sorts speech recognition errors by the follow-up each one calls for; the paper will be presented as an oral talk at ROCLING 2026. In a project on advance care planning with clinicians at NCKU Hospital, I build the knowledge graph and the question answering that draws on it.

As an undergraduate I worked on edge AI: a multimodal fall detector on a Jetson Nano with 2 GB of memory, and a co-design study that ran one model on a PC, a Jetson, and an FPGA to find where the latency actually goes.
