Short Bio
I am a fourth-year PhD student at the University of Washington, where I am very fortunate to be co-advised by Hannaneh Hajishirzi and Noah Smith. Prior to UW, I completed my Master's degree at Peking University and Bachelor's degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
My research aims to push forward artificial intelligence through the language perspective. In particular, I am interested in how to make machines understand human language, acquire knowledge from the textual world, and conduct systematic reasoning in various complex scenarios. Recently, I am working on building LMs that can follow instructions to generalize across various tasks.
My name is written as 王义中 in Chinese characters.
