Yuan He (In Chinese: 何源)

Department of Computer Science

University of Oxford

Hi! I am Yuan He, a PhD candidate in Computer Science, supervised by Professor Ian Horrocks, Professor Bernardo Cuenca Grau, and Dr. Jiaoyan Chen at the University of Oxford. My research primarily focuses on the areas of Natural Language Processing, Deep Learning, and Knowledge Engineering, with a particular interest in integrating language models with structured and logical data such as ontologies and knowledge graphs.

I am also the main contributor of several packages and resources, notably: DeepOnto, OAEI Bio-ML, and HierarchyTransformers.
