Alan (Haoxin) Li

Hi, I’m Alan and currently a PhD student at Yale NLP, working with Prof. Arman Cohan.

Previously, I obtained my Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from Combined BS/MS program at the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering, University of Washington. During my time there, I was fortunate to be a part of the ARK Lab, where I worked with Prof. Noah A. Smith, Jungo Kasai, and Mr. Phillip Keung. My past research experiences mainly cover efficiency, multimodality, and generative retrieval. Feel free to reach out!

I’m also an ex-intern at Kotoba Tech, a fast-growing startup focusing on audio AI system in Tokyo, Japan! Check out their exciting demo on X!
