Biography

Hi! Nice to meet you! I am Chia-Hsuan (Michael) Lee (李佳軒). I am currently a third-year PhD student at University of Washington, where I work in the Natural Language Processing Group with Prof. Mari Ostendorf.

My research interests are deep learning/machine learning and their applications in natural language processing. My recent research interests are

• dialogue systems (IC-DST, SGP-DST)
• text-to-SQL parsing (KaggleDBQA, IC-DST)
• multilingual NLP (DOCmT5, CLQA)

Previously I spent great years at National Taiwan University working with Prof. Lin-Shan Lee and Prof. Hung-Yi Lee on spoken question answering (Spoken-SQuAD, ODSQA, Adversarial Learning SQA).
