I am a Ph.D. student at Northeastern University. I am working with Professor David A. Smith on Natural Language Processing. Prior to that, I recieved my master degree from School of Computer Science , Fudan University in June 2014. I got my bachelor degree from School of Computer Science and Software Engineering , East China Normal University .
Here is my Curriculum Vitae .
Research Interest :
My research interests are in natural language processing and machine learning. I am currently focusing on text error correction and language modeling based on neural network models.
