Chunyuan Deng ι‚“ζ·³θΏœ

I am a second-year CS PhD Student at Rice University advised by Prof. Hanjie Chen. Previously, I am also affiliated with Yale NLP and Georgia Tech.

Generally, I do prosaic and pragmatic interpretability research. I am drawn to methods with theoretical guarantees or mathematical soundness.
