Learning Spectrum-Matched Gap Sequences for Shellsort
Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) 2026 Main track New
Hello! I am a 2nd-year undergraduate studying Computer Science at the University of Washington. My current work studies how language models learn, represent, and expose structure through tokenization, decoding, and representation geometry. My earlier published work was in computational photography, which was my first route into computer vision & applied AI.
In my free time I like to talk about tokenizers, play the piano, and sometimes question my sanity—although I will admit these are not mutually exclusive activities.
Language Models Detokenize, But Only for Themselves was selected for an oral presentation at AACL-IJCNLP 2026!
Learning Spectrum-Matched Gap Sequences for Shellsort was accepted to NeurIPS 2026 as a poster!
Language Models Detokenize, But Only for Themselves was accepted to AACL-IJCNLP 2026.
I am honored to have received the Kyril Faenov Endowed Scholarship in Computer Science & Engineering!
