Biography

I am now an assistant professor in College of Information and Computer Engineering in Northeast Forestry University.

My research interests are in the areas of text mining, social computing, with special interests on user modeling and information recommendation on social media.

I obtained my doctoral degree at Harbin Institute of Technology in July 2017, affiliated with the center for Social Computing and Information Retrieval (SCIR), supervised by professor Ting Liu.

From 2014 to 2015, I am a visiting student at Singapore Management University, supervised by Professor Jing Jiang. Before that, I received my Bachelors and Masters degrees in Software Engineering from Harbin Institute of Technology in July 2010 and July 2012 receptively.
