Zhiying Jiang, PhD candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Supervisor: Professor Jimmy Lin

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are often used for text classification due to their high accuracy. However, DNNs can be computationally intensive, requiring millions of parameters and large amounts of labeled data, which can make them expensive to use, to optimize, and to transfer to out-of-distributed (OOD) cases in practice.

Please note: This seminar will take place in DC 1304 and virtually over Zoom.
