About me

Hi, I’m Kehan Guo, a Ph.D student in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, advised by Professor.Xiangliang Zhang. I am also glad to be a member of NSF Center for Computer Assisted Synthesis (C-CAS).Before that, I earned my M.S in Boston University.

I am seeking potential research collaborations and the position of industry research intern. If you are interested, please contact me.

📖: Research Interest

I am exploring how to enhance the reasoning & planning capabilities of Large Language Models to address problem in scientific domain.

For technologies, my studies encompass Large language models (LLM), LLM-based agents, Machine Unlearning, and Generative Models.

For practical applications, my studies encompass Scientific Domains, OOD detection, and Automated ML Systems, which naturally require better planning and reasoning capabilities of intelligent systems.
