Zifeng Ding

I am a Research Associate (Postdoctoral Researcher) at the University of Cambridge. Currently, I am working with Prof. Andreas Vlachos in the Cambridge NLIP Group. I was a Computer Science PhD at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, supervised by Prof. Volker Tresp and funded by Siemens AG. I was also a nominated PhD of the ELLIS Society, co-supervised by Prof. Michael Bronstein. Prior to that, I obtained my MSc degree at the Technical University of Munich and my BEng degree at East China Normal University, both in Electrical Engineering.

My current interests include automated fact-checking, hallucinations by LLMs, temporal knowledge within LLMs, retrieval-augmented generation, and representation learning on structured knowledge (e.g., knowledge graphs) as well as temporal/dynamic graphs.

I am very interested in supervising talented PhD, master and bachelor students in publishing top-tier papers. Feel free to send me an email for enquiry. But please note that scientific research is a gradual and continuous endeavor. I hope you have sufficient effort and patience.
