About me
My name is Renze Lou ( 楼仁泽 ), a first-year PhD candidate at Penn State University. I am glad to be supervised by Prof. Wenpeng Yin. Before PSU, I was an undergraduate at Zhejiang University City College, advised by Prof. Lin Sun.
My current research interest focuses on Learning from Task Instructions, but I am also familiar with Information Extraction, Multi-task Learning, and Emotion Analysis.
