About Rao
Currently, I’m in my third year of pursuing a PhD in Information Engineering at the University of Cambridge, supervised by Prof. Kate Knill. I have been working in the field of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) since 2018. As the first author, I have successfully published research papers in top-tier AI conferences, including ICASSP, Interspeech, EMNLP, and NAACL. During my PhD, I interned at Google NYC for three months, building cutting-edge ASR systems.Before starting my PhD, I worked as a speech recognition engineer at the AI Lab of ByteDance. My role involved enhancing speech recognition technology for products such as TikTok and Capcut, leading to significant improvements in accuracy and reliability. I earned my B.S. Degree from Nanjing University in 2018, where I graduated as the top-ranked student among 150 peers. Subsequently, I completed my M.S. degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2021.
