About me

I am currently a Research Scientist at Salesforce AI Research. I obtained PhD in Computer Science at School of Computing (SoC), National University of Singapore (NUS), advised by Prof. Xiaokui Xiao. During my PhD, I also closely collaborated with Prof. Bryan Hooi, Prof. Kenji Kawaguchi, and Prof. Muhao Chen. My research interests are graph neural networks, graph learning, and time series.

Prior to my PhD study, I received my bachelor degree in Computer Science from Sichuan University, China.
