Zuchao Li

Biography

Zuchao Li (Charlie) is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, advised by Prof. Hai Zhao.

He was an internship research fellow at NICT from 2019-2020, working with Dr. Rui Wang, Masao Utiyama, and Eiichiro Sumita. He received his B.S. degree from Wuhan University in 2017. His research focuses on Syntactic Parsing, Semantic Parsing and Language Modeling, especially the Neural Machine Translation. He (as the first author) has published 9 papers in leading NLP/ML/AI conferences and journals, including ACL, EMNLP, COLING, ICLR, AAAI, PRICAI and IEEE/ACM transactions. He (as the first accomplisher) has won the 1st place in various Parsing and NMT shared tasks, such as CoNLL-2019, WMT-2020. He served as a program committee member of ACL, EMNLP, COLING, ICLR, AAAI, and CCL.
