I am looking for research assistants/Postdoc researchers to work with me on designing smart and efficient graph algorithms. If you would like to work on big data research , please email me your resume with a short statement of research interests.

Biography

I received my Bachelor degree in Computer Science & Technology from Renmin University of China in July 2010. I got my Ph.D degree in Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management at the Chinese University of Hong Kong under the supervision of Prof. Jeffrey Xu Yu in October 2014 and worked as postdoctoral fellow under his supervision for one year. Currently, I am working as a research assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at Hong Kong Baptist University.
