Professional Summary
About Me
I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Northern Illinois University (NIU). I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Virginia Tech in December 2023, where I was advised by Prof. Chang-Tien Lu at the Sanghani Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics.
My research focuses on graph-based representation learning and reasoning, as well as information retrieval. Feel free to reach out if you see potential alignment and are interested in collaborating.
At NIU, I co-founded the NIU AI and organize the AI & ML research seminar series. NIU students can subscribe here to participate.
