Shengqiong Wu

I am currently a Ph.D. candidate at NExT++ Lab, advised by Prof. Chua Tat Seng in School of Computing at National University of Singapore, after I obtained my M.S. and Bachelor degrees from Wuhan University.

My research interest mainly lies in Scene Graph-based Vision-Language Understanding, with the contexts of Multimodal Large Language Models and Diffusion Model, etc. Previously, I focused on syntax-aided NLP, i.e., employing external syntactic and linguistic representation to aid NLP tasks.
