Hi there! I’m Zhe Zeng (曾哲); thanks for visiting my homepage. I’m a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). It’s very lucky for me to be advised by Professor Guy Van den Broeck and to be a member of Statistical and Relational Artificial Intelligence (StarAI) Lab✨🐻✨.
My research interests lie broadly in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). In particular, I am interested in probabilistic ML and neurosymbolic AI to enable and support decision-making in the real world in the presence of probabilistic uncertainty and symbolic knowledge, where the symbolic knowledge includes graph structures and logical, arithmetic, and physical constraints. Such advancements have wide applications ranging from graph-based learning and explainable AI to AI for Science.
I received my bachelor’s degree in Mathematics at Zhejiang University. As an undergraduate student, I was lucky to collaborate with Professor Qiang Liu at Dartmouth College in theory and algorithms for robust, scalable, and nonparametric variational inference.
I am on the 2023-2024 academic job market. Please feel free to reach out if you have potential positions :-)
