保护项目 3 的预审审核：构建基于 NLP、computational semantics、lexical/distributional semantics、language understanding 以及叙事图形的拟合参数，并阐述一个近期论文或项目，以及您计划在第一个学期启动的一个具体扩展。
Who this advisor fits / 什么情况下适合你
- Industry research or startup/translation paths appeal to you (meaningful share in public outcomes).
- Good fit for computational semantics applicants; benchmark on research alignment and program fit rather than public placement rows.
- 工业研究或创业/转化路径对你有吸引力（公开去向里占比不低）。
- 适合申请 computational semantics 的申请人；评估研究对齐与项目契合度，而非公开就业行。
What to watch for / 什么情况下要慎重
- Faculty-only is your sole goal and you want zero industry/translation exposure.
- 你把「教职为唯一目标」且完全不想碰工业/转化网络。
