Biography
I am a Professor in University of Science and Technology of China, where I am a member of Lab of Data Science. With my colleagues, students, and collaborators, we strive to develop trustworthy deep learning and artificial intelligence algorithms with better interpretability, generalization, and robustness. Our research is motivated by, and contributes to, graph-structured applications in information retrieval (e.g., personalized recommendation), data mining (e.g., graph pre-training), security (e.g., fraud detection in fintech, information security in system), and multimedia (e.g., video question answering). Our work has over 50 publications in top-tier conferences and journals. Over 10 papers have been featured in the most cited and influential list (e.g., KDD 2019, SIGIR 2019, SIGIR 2020, SIGIR 2021) and best paper finalist (e.g., WWW 2021, CVPR 2022). Moreover, I have served as the PC member for top-tier conferences including NeurIPS, ICLR, SIGIR and KDD, and the invited reviewer for prestigious journals including JMLR, TKDE, and TOIS.
Prospective Ph.D., Master, and Undergraduate Students
I am looking for highly motivated students (PhD, master, undergraduate students) to work together on trustworthy deep learning on graph, especially pre-training, interpretability, generalization, and robustness, and their applications in real-world scenarios. Please feel free to send me your CV and transcripts, if you have interest. We are also actively looking for opportunities in research, partnership and commercialization in exciting data science projects.
