Hi! I am a final-year PhD candidate at
College of Computing and Data Science,
Nanyang Technological University, supervised by Prof.
Yiping Ke.
Prior to NTU, I received a B.S. in Software Engineering from
Beihang University in 2020.
I worked with Prof.
Jie Tang at
Tsinghua University on Natural Language Processing.
In 2019 and 2020, I was a research intern in
Knowledge Computing Group,
Microsoft Research Asia.
My research interests lie in representation learning and healthcare, especially on graph neural networks. I do believe these fields make invaluable contributions to the real world.

Miscellaneous
Aside from my curiosity about computer science and my study preoccupation, I am also a big fan of music and go game. I would like to listen to the concert, play guitar or watch go game competition in my free time. If this involves sports, I favor swimming since it enhances my self-control and it is a benefit in my health insurance and spirit.
