Xiangming Gu

I am a third-year Ph.D. candidate from NUS Sound and Music Computing Lab, where I am supervised by Prof. Ye Wang. I am affiliated to Integrative Sciences and Engineering Programme and School of Computing at National University of Singapore. Before that, I obtained my B.E. degree of Electronic Engineering and B.S. degree of Finance at Tsinghua University in 2021.

My research interests include two directions: (i) fundamental research for generative models and (multimodal) large language models; (ii) application of machine learning, e.g. multimodal learning, multi-distribution learning (domain adaptation, fairness), to singing/speech techniques.
