Hi there! Welcome to my little corner of the web! Here I would present some of my works and notes.
My research interests include causal inference, nonparametric statistical learning, diffusion models and their applications.
🌟 I am actively preparing to apply for PhD programs in 2026 Fall. I would like to share some of my study notes and reflections on this website.
🌟 I’m open to criticism, discussion and collaboration opportunities. If you have any suggestion or want to discuss something, feel free to contact me at lancanyuan16@outlook.com.
