About Me
I am Jing Zhu, a second year PhD student at the University of Michigan. My advisor is Danai Koutra. I have also interned at LLNL with Mark Heimann in summer 2021 and AWS DGL Team with Xiang Song in summer 2022.
My past research includes unsupervised graph learning (SDM 2021, CIKM 2022), and multimodal learning (EMNLP 2021, NeurIPS 2022). Currently I work more on link prediction using a variety of methods (GNNs, KGEs, LMs).

Publications
- We propose Touch and Go: a multimodal visuo-tactile learning dataset which tries to associate sight with touch to understand material properties
- We propose CAPER, a multilevel alignment framework that improves upon existing alignment algorithms by enforcing alignment consistency across multiple graph resolutions.
- We propose NegatER, the first Unsupervised framework that ranks potential negatives in commonsense KBs using a contextual language model (LM).
- We present the first unified framework of node embedding (PhUSION) that includes both proximity-preserving and structural embeddings.
