Biography
I received my PhD degree from the Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management (SEEM), The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) in 2020, supervised by Kam-Fai Wong and Wei Gao. I was recognised as one of “The 2022 Women in AI” by Aminer, and her paper was selected as Top Five Outstanding TIST Articles. During 2018.12-2019.08, I was a visiting scholar at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. During 2019.12-2020.02, Iwas a visiting scholar at Institute for Basic Science, South Korea. In recent years, I served as Session Chair for COLING 2020, Program Committee Member for WWW2021, AAAI 2019-2021, ACL 2019, EMNLP 2019, AI 2019, etc, and was invited to review for journals such as TIST, TKDE, TOMM, etc. Early on I was working as a research intern in Baidu (with natural language processing group) and Tencent (with AI Lab).
