About me

I'm currently a senior researcher at Microsoft Research Asia. I received the B.S. degree in computer science from Zhejiang University in 2014. In July 2019, I received the PhD degree in computer science from the University of Hong Kong under the supervision of Prof. Bruno C. d. S. Oliveira. In September 2019, I joined the Data, Knowledge, and Intelligence (DKI) group at MSRA.

Our lab has several intern positions. If you are a self-motivated student with strong interests in Software Engineering, Programming Languages, and/or Deep Learning, etc., please send me your CV.

My research interests include:
