Natural Language Processing Lab

CincyNLP Lab

The goal of the CincyNLP (Natural Language Processing Lab) at the University of Cincinnati is to advance the understanding of human language and cognition, and develop AI systems that meaningfully assist people in their daily lives.

We are passionate about pushing the frontiers of GenAI and large language models (LLMs). Our research spans a broad range of NLP and machine learning topics — including retrieval, reasoning, and multimodality — with the aim of empowering machines to capture and extend the subtlety and richness of human communication.

I am looking for motivated students to work with me (application FAQs). Feel free to reach out.

Tianyu Jiang is an assistant professor in the Computer Science department at the University of Cincinnati, where he established and directs the CincyNLP Lab. His research covers multiple aspects of how AI understands and interacts with people, including meaning, emotion, and social behavior, studied through where they live in the model’s representations, what that geometry tells us about model behavior, and how to make the findings actionable. He believes that better interpretability methods are still needed to turn the study of AI into a science, and thus make AI safer and more trustworthy.
