I am Xinnong Zhang (张辛农), a Ph.D. student at Fudan University. I’m currently advised by Prof. Zhongyu Wei and carrying out my research at the Data Intelligence and Social Computing Lab (Fudan DISC). My email is xnzhang23 AT m DOT fudan DOT edu DOT cn.

Research Interests

Currently, I’m excited about the following topics:

• Bootstrapping Computational Social Science via Large Vision Language Models
• Agents Simulation Powered by Large Language Models

What’s New

• [2025.01.23] AgentSense has been accepted by NAACL’25 main conference!
• [2024.12.05] Our Survey on Social Simulation has been released! [Paper], [Repo].
• [2024.10.29] AI-Press, AgentSense, and ElectionSim, altogether three new works are now released! It’s been quite tough days and now I’m planning on a vacation : )
