ABOUT ME

I am a Computer Science PhD student at the University of Waterloo, member of the Vector Institute, supervised by Professor Pascal Poupart. My research interests are in Machine Learning, Deep Learning and Natural Language Processing and my focus is on Reliable Machine Learning using Causal Inference and Deep Representation Learning.

Previously I was a Senior Research Engineer at Huawei Noah’s Ark Lab where I worked on Machine Translation, Natural Language Understanding, Adversarial Algorithms and Model Compression. I completed my Master’s degree at McGill, working on semi-supervised learning, under the supervision of Professor Yannis Psaromiligkos and Professor Roussos Dimitrakopoulos. I was also to work with Professor Luc Devroye during the summer of 2015. My undergraduate was in Electrical Engineering at McGill and I was supervised by Professor Jan Bajcsy for my Honor’s thesis.
