On December 2023, I moved to Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) as Associate Professor. On December 2019, I joint Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) as Research Assistant Professor. On March 2019, I joint University of Birmingham as Research Fellow. I obtained my PhD degree from School of Computer Science of University of Birmingham under the supervision of Prof. Xin Yao (co-supervised by Dr. Leandro L. Minku). Previously, I received my BSc and MSc degrees from School of Mathematics of Harbin Institute of Technology.
Research Interests
My main research interests are machine learning and its applications to predictive software engineering. Currently, I am working on- data stream learning, verification latency, class imbalance learning, ensemble learning, unsupervised learning, Bayesian regression with small data, and deep learning
- applications of the above to predictive software engineering such as software defect prediction and software effort estimation.
Openings: We are opening to MSc and PhD students working on those topics who are good at coding and/or math.
