I am an Associate Professor of the Computer Science Department at Harbin Institute of Technology, where I lead a Text Generation team. At HIT CS, I'm also a member of the Research Center for Social Computing and Information Retrieval . My primary research interests are in the fields of Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. I'm interested in building efficient models and benchmarks that can encourage machines to perform human-level intelligence. My current research interests include:

I'm looking for highly motivated students to work with me on broad NLP research.
