I am a last year PhD student working with Professor Yiming Yang in Language Technologies Institute of School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. Prior to that, I received my B.E. in Computer Science & Engineering from Tsinghua University.

My on-going research spans several subfields of deep learning, such as natural language pretraining, machine translation and neural architecture search.
