I am a PHD student in NLIP group. My supervisor is Dr. Anna Korhonen.
I come from Qingdao, People Republic of China. Here is a short CV of mine.
Research Interests
Verb classification,
Text mining,
Unsupervised Learning
Education
I studied MPhil in Computer Speech Text and Internet Technology in Computer Laboratory, University of Cambridge from 2006-07. My MPhil project was automatic lexical classification, supervised by Dr. Anna Korhonen.
In 2006, I obtained Bsc in Computer Science from School of Informatics (now School of Computer Science), University of Manchester. My final year project was proposed by myself, and under the supervision of Dr. Xiaojun Zeng. The project builds one of the world's first web-based document management and processing system, similar to Google document and Microsoft Live workspace. Some screenshots are available in the thesis.
