Research

Overview

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.
