I am currently an Associate Professor and the Director of the Laboratory for High Performance Data Mining, Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). Previously, I was a senior AI researcher at Tencent, working on NLP related tasks. I received my Ph.D. degree from Department of Computer Science, The University of Hong Kong.
My research interests include a variety of topics, including (but not limited to): Natural Language Processing Applications, Large language Models, Human-inspired Language Learning (e.g., lifelong learning, multi-task learning, transfer learning), Recommendation Systems.
We are hiring a few postdocs/interns/master/PhD students. Drop me a CV if interested (min.yang@siat.ac.cn).
