I am a Ph.D. student at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), under Prof. Helen Meng. I am extensively interested in spoken language processing, including discriminative speech modeling and conversational human-computer interaction. My current work focuses on understanding and analysis of clinical conversations, with a goal of facilitating population-scale screening of cognitive disorder. During Ph.D., I fortunately received the IEEE Ganesh N. Ramaswamy Memorial Student Grant, ISCA Award for the Best Paper Published in Speech Communication, and Outstanding Student Award of CUHK.
Prior to attending CUHK, I worked at Centor for Speech and Language Technology (CSLT) @ Tsinghua University, under Prof. Dong Wang. I obtained my Bachelor's degree from Jilin University, where I focused on optical signal processing as an undergraduate researcher.
Feel free to contact me if you have any question about my works.
