🔭 I’m currently a PhD student in Computational Linguistics at Georgetown University.
⚡ I’m broadly interested in Computational Linguistics, Cognitive Science, NLP, and linguistic theories. I have worked and am working on the following areas:
- generalization of language models (To what extend can language models generalize from their training data?)
- inductive bias of language models and humans (What's the difference between human mind and language models? How can we make language models more human like by introducing such inductive bias?)
- learnability of natural languages (what makes some languages harder to learn to machines?)
- computational semantics (How to develope accurate and generalizable parsers? How can we incorporate meaning representation to downstream tasks?)
- neuro-symbolic NLP (How to incorporate linguistic information to NLP tasks?)
- targeted evaluation of language models (What do language models know about natural language we speak?)
