Resume
Academic Achievements
- Supervised several PhD students to completion on various research topics in natural language processing, such as text-to-text generation, semantic parsing, and cross-lingual transfer.
Research Experience
- Currently a professor in computer science at the School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh, and a member of EdinburghNLP, the Natural Language Processing Group at the University of Edinburgh. Supervises multiple PhD students and postdoctoral researchers.
Background
- Research interests include improving compositional generalization in deep learning models, enhancing cross-lingual transfer in multilingual language models, addressing limitations in understanding and generating long contexts, and creating verifiable systems. Current areas of interest include: (1) Agent-based frameworks for collaborative writing tasks; (2) Improving the representation of long context; (3) Parameter efficient approaches for LLM generalization to new tasks; (4) Language grounding.
