Brief Biography
I obtained my bachelor and master degrees from Nanjing University and PhD degree from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). Prior to joining Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), I have worked in HKUST and Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) for about eight years.
My current research interests include artificial intelligence, machine learning, pattern recognition, and data mining. I am especially interested in multi-task learning, transfer learning, meta learning, deep learning, and semi-supervised learning.
