Hello!

I am an Applied Scientist in Amazon Search Query Understanding team. I obtained my PhD degree from College of IST, the Pennsylvania State University. I was very fortunate to have been advised by Dr. Prasenjit Mitra and Dr. Suhang Wang. Prior to this, I received my Bachelor of Engineering degree from Computer Science Department, University of Science and Technology of China.

My research interests are machine learning, data mining, knowledge graph, graph neural networks, search & recommendation, and AutoML. Our team is hiring interns for 2022 (spring, summer, and autumn). If you are interested in working with us, please email me with your CV.
