I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at Mila - Quebec AI Institute, University of Montreal, advised by Prof. Jian Tang. Prior to that, I obtained my B.S. in Computer Science from Peking University.

My research focuses on machine learning and its applications on large-scale data, with an emphasis on structured and relational data like knowledge graphs and biomedical networks. I work on graph representation learning, machine learning systems and drug discovery. Besides, I also have a deep interest in computer vision and natural language processing, particularly in understanding how human and AI process information. See my CV for full details.

I believe that principles are more essential than solutions, and should come first in most cases. I also have a great fondness for elegant and efficient designs. These values motivated most of my works.

Artworks

In my spare time, I enjoy photography a lot. Together with hiking, these hobbies drive me to explore the beauty of the land, as well as learn about myself and life.
