About Me

Lingdong Kong 孔令东

I am an M.Eng. student in the Machine Reasoning and Learning Lab at the School of Computer Science and Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, under the supervision of Prof. Hanwang Zhang. I am also a junior research assistant at ADSC, a research center affiliated with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Currently, I work in the fields of computer vision and natural language processing, with particular interests in representation learning and causal inference.

I received my M.Sc. degree in computer control and automation from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, under the supervision of Prof. Bihan Wen, in 2020, and my B.Eng. degree in intelligent science and technology from the South China University of Technology, Guangzhou, China, in 2019.
