I am a senior machine learning scientist at IQVIA ACOE. My research interests include machine learning, matrix/tensor factorization, optimization and with a recent focus on AI/ML for healthcare.

Before joining IQVIA, I was working with Prof. Nikos Sidiropoulos for about five years. I first joined Prof. Sidiropoulos' group in Oct. 2014 as a visiting Ph.D. student at Dept. of ECE, University of Minnesota Twin Cities, and later on became a postdoc in 2017 (in Aug 2017, relocated to University of Virginia until Aug.2019).

I received the B.E. degree in communication engineering from Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou, China, in 2011, and M. E. and Ph.D. degrees in information and communication engineering from Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin, China, in 2013 and 2017, respectively.
