Brief Biography

I am currently associate Professor and PhD supervisor at Yangzhou University, Yangzhou, Jiangsu, China. I obtained my PhD degree in November 2016 from Hefei University of Technology, under the supervision of Prof. Xindong Wu. I was a visiting Ph.D. student in University of Massachusetts Boston from October 2014 to June 2016.
