I am an Assistant Professor at Department of Computer Science at UC Davis. I direct the Language Understanding and Knowledge Acquisition (LUKA) Lab. My research focuses on robust and minimally supervised data-driven machine learning for natural language understanding, structured data processing, and knowledge acquisition from unstructured data. Previously, I was an Assistant Research Professor of Computer Science at USC from 2020 to 2023, and a Postdoctoral Fellow with Dan Roth at UPenn from 2019 to 2020. I received my Ph.D. degree from the Department of Computer Science at UCLA in 2019, where I worked with Carlo Zaniolo, Kai-Wei Chang and Wei Wang. Before joining UCLA as a Ph.D. student, I graduated with a Bachelor degree from Fudan University in 2014 where I worked with X. Sean Wang.

- In winter 2024, my group will move to the University of California, Davis, where I will join the Department of Computer Science as an Assistant Professor. While I'm going to miss SoCal and Tsujita, I look forward to living in the capital city Sacremento and hanging out with many friends in the Bay Area.
- I will be looking for PhD students at the CS Department of UC Davis to start in Fall 2024.
