Academic Interests
-
Geometric Deep Learning for Molecules
- Geometric Deep Learning for Biomolecules. Combined amino acid sequence information, three-dimensional coordinate information, and phylogenetic information to build a large-scale model on protein structure prediction and protein-protein interaction prediction.
- Equivariant Graph Neural Network for Operator Learning. Leveraged the group theoretical results of irreducible representations to build a model equivariant to 3D rigid transformations on continuous input and output. Achieved state-of-the-art results on various equivariant tasks.
