About me

Hi there! I am Shicheng Liu, fourth-year CS Ph.D. at Stanford advised by Prof. Monica S. Lam at Stanford Open Virtual Assistant Lab (OVAL) and Stanford NLP Group. I focus on real-life, practical NLP problems, often drawing perspectives from computer systems and programming languages. My recent research focuses on knowledge agents with LLMs, aiming to enable domain-independent approaches that effectively retrieve and navigate different sources of knowledge, including structured, unstructured, and hybrid (combination of structured and unstructured data) sources.

During summer 2025, I was an AI research intern at Meta, where I learned from many wonderful mentors, including Kai Sun, Scott Yih, and Luna Dong.
