Experience

Research Experience

Tongji University

SITP(Student Innovation Training Program)
Need Predication of Sharing Bicycle based on LSTM Neural Network/Research, Member
Oct 2019 - Mar 2021

• Optimized the structure and parameters of the model based on time and space features with accuracy improvement from 60% to 80%+
• Classified datasets combining with interdisciplinary research methods (e.g. biological methods)
• Defined regional criterion including the 1000m-radius area centering on metro stations, malls and schools
• Applied principles in counting from hemacytometry to the marginal data-set point

SAIC Foundation Tongji Joint Intelligent Driving Project Research Team
Research Assistant
Feb 2022 - present

• Responsible for high-precision semantic segmentation research on road surface features such as lane lines and zebra crossings;
• Working on Panoptic Segmentation Algorithm Study for Vehicle-Road Collaborative Cognition - Thesis project

University of California, Irvine

Research Intern, Remote,
Mar 2022 - Jun 2022

• Reviewed a number of papers related to texutal entailment and studied on Repurposing Entailment for Multi-Hop Question Answering Tasks——Multee, which is a general architecture that can effectively use entailment models for multi-hop QA tasks, and:
  • reproduced results in the paper;
  • attempted to add named entity annotations using Stanza(a NLP tool from Stanford) to OpenbookQA dataset, and used the annotated dataset to fine-tune the multee model;
  • studied on ESIM(Enhanced LSTM for Natural Language Inference) and developed the idea of merging Multee and ESIM;
• Started analysis on the parse tree templates and:
  • tried tagging the subject and object, parse tree and dependency relations using Stanford CoreNLP tool;
  • studied on parse tree structures under Penn Tree Bank annotations and tried to delevop workable parse tree and dependency templates for predicate calculus and first-order inference system, having referred to some previous work;
  • trying to implement ideas on the OpenbookQA dataset.

Professional Experience
