Cheng WANG

I'm a third-year undergraduate student from National University of Singapore (NUS). I am fortunate to work closely with Prof. Yiwei Wang, Prof. Yujun Cai, Prof. Bryan Hooi, and Prof. Kai-Wei Chang. I am broadly interested in Natural Language Processing (NLP), with a particular focus on Trustworthy NLP and Reasoning in NLP.
