I am a Ph.D. student at
the Department
of Computer Science,
University of
Massachusetts, Amherst. My advisor is
Prof.
Andrew McCallum.
My research interests lie primarily in
the area of statistical machine learning and data mining with
special focus on topic modeling and social network analysis,
both by discovering hidden structures. Currently, I
am mainly conducting research on the role of text in social
network analysis with applications to email messages, political
voting records, and academic literatures. I am also
interested in bioinformatics. See my
research. |

Before I came to
UMass, I worked for

MS in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining at
the
Center for Automated Learning and Discovery,
Carnegie Mellon
University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where I worked with Prof.
Tom Mitchell on
Machine
Learning for Human Brain Image Analysis. During 1994-2001,
I studied at the
Department of Automation, Tsinghua University, Beijing,
People's Republic of China, and got my bachelor's and master's
degrees of engineering. Like all students abroad, I at
