Hi there, I’m Irene Li (李紫辉) ! Welcome to my blog! 🙂
I want to share my learning journals, notes and programming exercises with you. The topics include data science, statistics, machine learning, deep learning, AI applications, etc.
I am working in LILY lab at Yale University. My advisor is Prof. Dragomir Radev. I passed my PhD Defense on the topic of “Neural Graph Transfer Learning in Natural Language Processing Tasks“! 🎉
This summer, I will join Suzumura Laboratory as an Assistant Professor at the University of Tokyo led by Prof. Toyotaro Suzumura. 🤝
Please contact me via irene.li[at]yale.edu.
