Chenxi Whitehouse
I am Chenxi, a research scientist at Meta, focusing on Fundamental AI Research for LLMs. I am also a visiting researcher at the University of Cambridge, where I previously worked as a postdoctoral research associate, collaborating with Prof. Andreas Vlachos on automated fact-checking.
Before joining Meta, I was an applied research scientist at Amazon AGI in Cambridge, where I focused on advancing Alexa with LLMs. I completed my PhD in knowledge-grounded NLP at City, University of London. Earlier, I received a Bachelor’s degree in Information Engineering from Xi’an Jiaotong University and a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg and University College London.
My research focuses on Natural Language Understanding and Generation, Multilinguality, Knowledge Distillation, and Reasoning. During my PhD, I interned at Google DeepMind in Amsterdam, Amazon Alexa AI in Cambridge, Huawei Noah’s Ark Lab in London, and visited MBZUAI as a research assistant.
I am also part of the machine learning team at Replicate, contributing to open-source AI solutions.
