About me
My name is Zhihan Zhang (张智涵). I am a second-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, advised by Dr. Meng Jiang. I am currently a member of Dr. Jiang’s Data Mining towards Decision Making (DM2) Lab. Before that, I received my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science at Peking University. My research interests fall primarily in the area of knowledge-enhanced NLP and question answering (QA).
