(Li 李 [family name] Jingling 京玲 [given name])
I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Maryland, College Park, where I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. John Dickerson. Before that, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Mathematics from Bryn Mawr College. My research focuses on understanding and enriching the reasoning capabilities of current deep learning models. I believe having the ability to reason is an important and necessary step to achieving general intelligence.
Across my Ph.D., I have interned at Microsoft Research under the guidance of Adith Swaminathan on designing better hindsight learning schemes for combinatorial optimization problems. I have also interned at DeepMind under the supervision of Dr. Petar Veličković, working on how to re-use the learned knowledge and skills in reinforcement learning. In addition, I have worked closely with Prof. Jimmy Ba and Prof. Taiji Suziki when doing research internships at Vector Institute and RIKEN AIP. During my research, I also received great guidance from Prof. Don Perlis, Prof. Furong Huang, and Prof. Justin Brody.
