Derek F. Wong
Associate Professor
Interim Associate Dean (Academic Affairs)
I am an associate professor in the Department of Computer and Information Science at the University of Macau, leading the Natural Language Processing & Portuguese-Chinese Machine Translation Research Group (NLP2CT Lab). I am working on natural language processing, with a particular focus on deep learning and machine translation. I was the recipient of the Second-class Prize in the Science and Technology Progress Award category of the Macao Science and Technology Award 2012. My recent NSFC and FDCT projects focus on low-resource machine translation.
