I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Pittsburgh. I obtained my Ph.D. degree at the University of Minnesota, under the supervision of Prof. Vipin Kumar. Prior to that, I got my B.S. and M.S. from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and State University of New York at Buffalo.
My research is focused on developing data mining and machine learning methods to solve real-world problems with great societal and scientific impacts.
I am looking for self-motivated Ph.D. students who are interested in data mining and machine learning. Please email me your CV if you are interested. More details can be found here.
Can we use the spatio-temporal remote sensing data to better understand global environmental changes?
We develop new algorithms to quantify model uncertainty so that human interventions can be conducted properly to better manage complex systems.
Machine learning solutions are needed to intelligently select the right time and locations to deploy sensors.
