My name is Huteng Dai (xu˨˩tʰəŋ˧˥ tai˥˨ 戴虎腾; meaning). I am a computational linguist and theoretical phonologist. My research focuses on understanding how humans learn sound patterns from noisy, real-world data. I build interpretable models of phonological learning that are not only mathematically well-defined but also succeed on real-world corpora.
I will join UMich Linguistics as an assistant professor of computational linguistics and phonology in Fall 2024. I recently completed my PhD at Rutgers Department of Linguistics with a certificate from Center for Cognitive Science. I'm a member of Rutgers Computational Linguistics Lab and UCI Language Processing Group.
