I’m a Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois: Urbana-Champaign advised by Professor ChengXiang Zhai. My research centers on Information Organization and Access. More specifically, I have focused on using ML, NLP, and IR techniques to transform unstructured text collections into meaningful graph-based structures. My recent work has focused on the Hypergraph of Text data structure.
