About Me

I obtained Ph.D degree in CSE from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2018. My Ph.D supervisor was Prof. Dit-Yan Yeung. Before that, I received my B.E. degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2014 under the supervision of Prof. Wu-Jun Li and Prof. Shi-Lin Wang. In 2019, I started my job as an applied scientist in Amazon Web Services (AWS) in the group lead by Dr. Mu Li and Dr. Alex Smola.

I am especially interested in applying machine learning to real-world problems.
