🎊 Welcome to my website!

My name is Kai Li (Chinese name: 李凯). I’m a third-year master student at Department of Computer Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, supervised by Prof. Xiaolin Hu (胡晓林). I am also a member of TSAIL Group directed by Prof. Bo Zhang (张拨) and Prof. Jun zhu (朱军).

I am an intern at Tencent AI Lab , mainly doing research on causal speech separation, supervised by Yi Luo (罗艺).

I got my bachelor’s degree from Department of Computer Technology and Application, Qinghai University, supervised by Prof. Jianqiang Huang (黄建强) and Prof. Chunmei Li (李春梅)

🤗 These works are open source to the best of my ability.

🤗 I am currently doing research on Source Separation, and am interested in other speech tasks (e.g., pre-training models and neuralscience). If you would like to collaborate, please contact me. Many thanks.
