My name is Simeng Sun (孙思萌). I am a research scientist at Nvidia. Previously, I defended my Ph.D. thesis Towards Effective Modeling of Long-range Context under the supervision of Prof. Mohit Iyyer at UMass Amherst. I was advised by Prof. Ani Nenkova when I was a master's student at UPenn, and Prof. Hui Zhang when I was an undergrad at Beihang University. My research interests lie broadly in language modeling and machine translation, with a special focus on long-context modeling and multilingual machine translation.
