Natural language processing · AI-supported assessment
About me
I am a PhD student in Human Resource Management at Renmin University of China, supervised by Professor Wenxia Zhou. I am also undertaking joint PhD training in Data Science at the City University of Hong Kong, supervised by Professor Xiangyu Zhao.
My research combines natural language processing, large language models, and psychometrics to study how text can support assessment and decision-making. I work on competency extraction, structured feedback, and recommendation tools, with applications in recruitment and career development.
Research interests
- NLP & large language models — text mining and information extraction from recruitment texts, open-ended responses, and other real-world corpora.
- AI-supported assessment — interpretable text-based assessment, structured feedback, and multi-source evaluation.
- Intelligent applications — job recommendation, competency extraction, and career-development support.
