I am currently a Postdoc at the Department of Computer Science, Hong Kong Baptist University, working with Prof. Hong-Ning Dai and Prof. William Kwok-Wai Cheung. I received my Ph.D. degree from the College of Computer and Data Science, Fuzhou University, in 2024, supervised by Prof. Wenzhong Guo and Prof. Shiping Wang. Before that, I majored in software engineering and obtained my B.E. degree from the College of Mathematics and Computer Science, Fuzhou University, in 2019. From Oct 2022 to Oct 2023, I was also a visiting scholar in Faculty of Computer Science, University of Vienna, Austria, supervised by Prof. Claudia Plant. My research interests include graph neural networks, optimization-inspired deep learning and their applications. My studies have led to over 20 scientific publications on top-tier conferences and journals, including AAAI, IEEE TPAMI, IEEE TNNLS, IEEE TMM, IEEE TSP, ACM TKDD, Information Fusion, Neural Networks, etc.

Curriculum Vitae (English) (updated at 11.06.2024).

My research interests: Graph neural networks, Multimodal learning, Optimization-inspired deep learning, Semi-supervised learning, Low-rank optimization.
