Hi, I am Mingze. I am a Machine Learning Engineer at Apple, working on Multimodal LLMs and Generative AI. Before joining Apple, I also worked or interned at Cruise AI, AWS AI Labs, Microsoft Research, and Honda Research Institute.

I received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from Indiana University, advised by Prof. David Crandall in 2020. I was a visiting student researcher at Georgia Institute of Technology, working with Prof. Dhruv Batra and Prof. Devi Parikh, in 2018. Before that, I received my Master's degree in Computer Science from Indiana University and my Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering from Jilin University.
