Hi! I am a PhD candiate at the Computational Linguistics Group @UofT. My advisor is Professor Gerald Penn. 牛靖程 is my name in Chinese.

I am interested in interpreting the computational mechanisms of language models, and temporal information extraction.

Feel free to email me about my research! I'm also happy to help with grad school applications, discuss research topics, or talk about careers in AI/NLP. Email: my lastname at cs.toronto.edu.
