What a full day! I regret not taking these wonderful sessions because of my research and sport arrangement, especially when I am about to reveal some interesting findings of DDL from my thesis😔 Meanwhile our underwater hockey society finished the last session of this year today!

A glance of #CL2023 posters!

Excited to share the news that the next International Corpus Linguistics Conference #CL2025 will take place in Birmingham, UK, jointly hosted by Aston University, Birmingham City University & Uni of Birmingham. Congratulations to the Lancaster #CL2023 team for a great conference - see you in 2025! 😃

Got a pause for global experience summer school teaching and glad to see a new citation this morning (need to focus on thesis this week😅)

Being over-popularised is not so good as expected for big language training model, as you never know how people will use (abuse) it😌

Check out my latest article: A Deep Dive into the Evolution of Corpus Linguistics: A Review of Two Decades of Research linkedin.com/pulse/deep-div… via LinkedIn

An inspirational article. I may contribute to this framework by analysing the retrospective data of DDL use in my thesis!

Last month, I attended the 20th ChinaCALL conference in Beijing and I am very honoured to win this year's best paper award! Hopefully I will extend this paper to a longer one after finishing my latest analyses.
