I am a Ph.D. student at
OSU SunLab advised by
Prof.
Huan Sun.
My research interests are
Natural Language Processing and
Conversational AI, which also closely relate to
Machine Learning and Human-Computer Interaction. Currently, I
am working on
Semantic Parsing and
Task-oriented Dialogue System.
I research under the (strong)
assumption
"a Universal Turing Machine can simulate all cognitive activities" so
that I may study human thoughts as algorithms and build computational
models. I also value interdisciplinary insights from Linguistics,
Psychology, Cognitive Science, etc. Besides, I am interested in
natural languages themselves and philosophy. So far, I can speak
Chinese, English, Japanese (JLPT N2), and some elementary Korean. In
the future, I would love to have a taste of more European languages,
such as Latin, since my favorite quote is in this language:
“Cogito, ergo sum.” – René Descartes (Or, in
English, “I think. Therefore, I am.”)
