Projects

Currently, I am actively involved in the Deep-time Digital Earth (DDE), an IUGS-recognized international big science program. My work with DDE includes developing the digital basin agent product empowered by the GeoGPT, and exploring a more efficient way of multi-modal geological entity classification for large language models. In addition, I conduct research on quality evaluations, modifiable areal unit problems, and sampling bias issues in paleoclimate, paleoenvironmental and paleontological data. I also supervise undergraduate students on small-scale research projects in computer vision, data extraction, software engineering, and user interface/experience design.

Past participated projects

• Sparrow: a web-based platform for geochemical data management and archiving.
• Macrostrat: a geospatial database containing lithological and stratigraphic information. (Useful documents: How to use Macrostrat API, and A (demo) Python notebook for extracting and manipulating Macrostrat data)
• GeoDeepDive (xDD): a digital online library.
