Jiarui Wang

I’m a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the School of Computer Science, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU), advised by Prof. Zhouhan Lin in Language Understanding and Machine Intelligence Algorithms (LUMIA) Group. I received my B.S. in Computer Science from SJTU.

My research focuses on machine learning and large language models (LLMs), with particular interests in:

  • Next-Generation LLM Architectures — exploring new architectural paradigms that decouple knowledge storage from reasoning to improve knowledge acquisition, reasoning, and generalization.

  • Parametric Memory — developing parametric memory modules for LLMs that efficiently acquire, retain, and update knowledge.

I’m always open to discussing research, collaboration, and new ideas. Please feel free to reach out!
