Welcome to My Homepage at Singapore Management University!
I am currently on leave from SMU. This homepage may not be up-to-date. You can visit my new homepage here.
I am a faculty member in the School of Information Systems (SIS) at the Singapore Management University (SMU). My research interests are Machine Learning, particularly in Online Learning and Deep Learning areas, for advancing Artificial Intelligence (AI). We have applied machine learning for real-life data analytics across varied domains, including multimedia analytics, computer vision and pattern recognition, web search & mining, social media, computational finance, cybersecurity, and mobile & software mining, etc.
