I study how language models interpret meanings, relationships, and structures in linguistic elements like discourse and emojis. My work involves developing new datasets, evaluation methods, and inference algorithms to advance understanding.
I only list my 🔝 3️⃣ 📜 here (Complete list is also available):
[📜1] A paper about discourse semantics Under review.

* 📜1: My first PhD paper.
* 📜2: This paper is an extension of a project I co-advised with Prof Min (unfortunately or fortunately I have to do the corpus study, experimentations and write the paper by myself since the student has graduated).
* 📜3: My first ever paper! There are so many grindings and eurekas. I am thankful to my teachers 🙇♂️
