Li Sheng (; born 1943), is a professor at the School of Computer Science and Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), China.〔(School of Computer Science and Technology at HIT )〕 He began his research on Chinese-English machine translation in 1985, making himself one of the earliest Chinese scholars in this field. After that, he pursued in vast topics of natural language processing, including machine translation, information retrieval, question answering and applied artificial intelligence. He was the final review committee member for computer area in NSF China. Born and raised in Heilongjiang province, he graduated in 1965 from the computer specialty of HIT, which is one of the earliest computer specialties in Chinese universities. Then he started to work as a staff in the Computer specialty of HIT, which was finally granted as a department in 1985. Also from 1985, he was appointed to undertake a series administrative positions in HIT, e.g. Dean of Computer Department(1987–1988), Director of R&D Division (1988–1990), Chief R&D Officer and several other key leading positions in HIT.〔(HIT Home Page )〕 Resigned all his administrative positions in 2004, Prof. Li devoted himself as the director of MOE-Microsoft Join Key Lab of NLP& Speech (HIT), making it a leading NLP research group with more than 100 staffs and students working on various aspects of NLP. So far, the lab has already been granted for dozens of technology awards by the ministries of central government and local provincial government of China. Its research progresses are reported annually in top tier conferences including ACL, IJCAI, SIGIR etc.〔(ACL Home Page )〕〔(IJCAI Website )〕〔(SIGIR Home Page )〕 As one of the pioneers in NLP research in China, he contributes NLP in China not only in technology innovations but also in talents education. So far, his research group has graduated more than 60 Ph.D. and almost 200 M.E with NLP major. Most of them are now working as the chief researcher in various NLP groups of universities and companies in China, including several world-known NLP scholars, such as Dr. Haifeng Wang〔(Wang Haifeng's online resume )〕 in Baidu Inc., Dr. Ming Zhou in MSRA,〔(Dr. Ming Zhou )〕 Dr. Min Zhang in Soochow University (China) and Dr. Teijun Zhao and Dr. Liu Ting in HIT. Owing to his contributions in Chinese Language Processing, Prof Li is elected as the President of Chinese Information Processing Society of China (CIPSC) in 2011.〔(Li Sheng - a academic leader at CIPSC )〕 He scaled this top level academic organization in China up to more than 3000 registered members, and promoted NLP into several national projects for research or industry development. In addition, the CIPSC is now enhancing its co-operations with world NLP organizations including ACL. == Machine Intelligence & Translation Laboratory (MI&TLAB) == Originates from Machine Translation Research Group of Computer Science Department, Harbin Institute of Technology, which was started by Prof. Li Sheng in 1985. It is one of the earliest institutions engaged in MT research in China, featured by its investigations into Chinese-English machine translation. It is now running under the Research Center on Language Technology, School of Computer Science and Technology, HIT.
