PhD from Interdisciplinary Graduate School (IGS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU)
B.S. in Physics from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC)
I am a CRCS postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University from July 2020, where I work with Professor Milind Tambe and Professor Hima Lakkaraju. Previously I did my first postdoc in the Department of Computer Science, Dartmouth College from July 2018, where I worked with Professor V.S. Subrahmanian. I obtained my PhD from Interdisciplinary Graduate School (IGS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in 2018, where I was advised by Professor Bo An. I got my B.S. in Physics from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in 2013.
I study AI techniques that help understand the world and benefit the society. In particular, I am interested in reinforcement learning, learning on graph/network-structured data, generative models, and predictive decision making. I work on domains such as public health, cybersecurity, transportation, and online/real-world social networks.
