About me

Greetings! I am Xinyi Mou.🤡 I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. at Fudan University, where I’m advised by Prof. Zhongyu Wei. I am also a member of the Data Intelligence and Social Computing Lab (Fudan DISC). During my PhD, I’ve spent a precious time with the THUNLP Lab at Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Zhiyuan Liu, Prof. Huimin Chen and Dr. Chen Qian.

Research Interests

My work spans Natural Language Processing and Computational Social Science. I’m particularly excited about these research thrusts:

• 🤖Social Simulation empowered by Large Language Model.
• 💻Explore and Improve the Capabilities of LLMs to Solve Computational Social Science Tasks.
• 👩‍⚖️Key Figure Modeling and Discourse Analysis.
