I am a Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research Montreal. I obtained a PhD from University of Montreal under the direction of Jian-Yun Nie, investigating how to effectively represent documents and queries for information retrieval. Recently, I have been motivated by studying efficiency of learning and systematic generalization in current large deep learning models. My interests span unsupervised learning and few-shot learning, especially in NLP.
