My name is Yong Sun, a software engineer in Beijing, China. I love coding, and my favorite programming languages are C/C++, Python, and I have some programming experiences of Java, Objective-C/Cocoa, Ruby, Perl, and shell. I had been working on Linux/Unix about 10 years.

I'm one of the lead contributors of SunPinyin project, which is a statistical language model based Chinese input method. SunPinyin had been ported to various input method frameworks or operating systems. On developing SunPinyin, I studied some NLP knowledge, like n-gram modeling, VMM/HMM, MaxEnt and CRF etc, in which I really have interests.

My biggest strength, as well as my biggest weakness, is probably that I have too much interests, even in my personal life. I love taking photos, especially for my son, you could visit my album on flickr. I'm an Apple fans, that's also the reason pushing me to port SunPinyin onto Mac OS And I like singing, most sports ...

That's me, welcome visiting
