General Information

I'm currently a Research Fellow at the University of Melbourne working with Trevor Cohn. I'm now working on the DARPA LORELEI project, primarily about low resource language processing and exploiting sparse human supervision.

Before joining UniMelb, I received my Ph.D. degree from University of Technology Sydney. During the PhD study, I worked with Prof. Dacheng Tao (Primary Advisor), Dr. Jie Yin and Prof. Xingquan Zhu on Artificial Intelligence. I also worked as an intern at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) and Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA) before. Find more details about me in my CV.

Research Interests

Natural language processing, Deep learning, Reinforcement learning, Machine learning, Data mining.
