Personal profile

Personal profile

Chunchuan started his research at XJTLU working on adversarial example. After he moved to Edinburgh, he has been researching on natual language processing, in particular computational semantics. During his PhD years, he has interned at Amazon and IBM. During his postdoc at Lisbon, he focused on structured prediction. Now, his main interest is unsupervised reinforcement learning. Clearly, he is a person that favors exploring new ideas.
