Haoxiang Sun

Hi there 👋, I’m Haoxiang Sun (孙浩翔). My research focuses on Language Models.

I am currently a visiting student at UC Berkeley from Jan to Aug. During my visit, I took CS 288: Advanced Natural Language Processing (A+, i.e. top 3 out of ~150 students, taught by Sewon Min and Alane Suhr) and CS 294-258: Computational Models of Language Use (A+, i.e. top 4 out of ~25 students, taught by Alane Suhr).

Some fun facts: one of my favorite things about living in the Bay Area is exploring on foot and by public transit (BART, Caltrain, Muni, and more). A go-to adventure of mine is taking BART to Powell Street Station, walking through Chinatown up to Fisherman’s Wharf, and then strolling along the waterfront all the way back to Embarcadero Station. I also love riding buses across the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay Bridge. Another frequent trip of mine is taking Caltrain from San Francisco all the way down to San Jose, grabbing a seat on the upper deck and enjoying the scenery along the way. I’m also a big fan of the vibe around Ocean Beach in San Francisco. When I’m not out exploring the Bay Area, I also enjoy playing Minecraft, especially on the Hypixel server, where my favorite game modes are Capture the Wool and Bed Wars (particularly Rush and Castle 40v40).

It seems to be a tradition to keep some links here, and I am happy to carry it on. The order shuffles on every refresh, and the list is always open. Just let me know if you’d like to be here too.
