Biography

Hi! I’m a second-year PhD student in computer science at The University of Hong Kong, advised by Lingpeng Kong and BCM Kao. I have previously interned at Tencent AI Lab, working with Piji Li and Wei Bi.

My primary research interests lie in the area of natural language processing and machine learning. My long-term research goal is to build a general and reliable machine learning system that can understand natural language text and solve real-world problems. Toward this goal, my work spans free-form explanation generation, efficient learning for NLP tasks, and applications to open-ended text generation (empathetic dialogue systems and long-range story planning).
