📜 About
I am currently a lecturer at the College of Computer and Information Science, Southwest University (SU). Prior to that, he was a Research Assistant at School of Big Data and Software Engineering, Chongqing University (CQU) from Sep. 2020 to Aug. 2023. In educationally, I obtained my Ph.D. Degree in Computer Architecture from the School of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) on Aug. 2020, under the supervisor of Prof. Zenglin Xu. During my Ph.D. degree pursuing, I joined the Research Practicum Program of University of New South Wales (UNSW), as a joint training Ph.D. candidate working with Prof. Wei Wang from Oct. 2017 to Oct. 2018. Prior to that, I received my Bachelor's Degree in Network Engineering from Chengdu University of Information Technology (CUIT), and Master's Degree in Software Engineering from UESTC in 2011 and 2014, respectively. I have published more than 50 papers in top journals and conferences, including IEEE JSAC, IEEE TMC, IEEE INFOCOM, IEEE/ACM ToN. My research interest lies in knowledge graphs, knowledge-enhanced LLM, agricultural-aware data mining and computation, food computation, and code understanding and representation.
