About Myself

I am currently a first-year PhD student in Information Science Program, Cornell University, my research interests include Social Network Mining, Network Analysis, and Online Social Community Study. I am also starting to work with Cybertools team supervised by professor Michael Macy in Cornell.

I got my MS degree on Computer Science from University of Californai, Santa Barbara in August 2007, where I worked on several areas, such as Network Routing and Web Data Mining.

I did my undergraduate on Computer Science in Tsinghua University, and I graduated there in July, 2005.

Something Else

Besides study and research, I enjoy slowly eating, mid-night talking, morning jogging on the beach, watching TV all the day and napping in library. I like mathematics and physics, but never get good grades in these classes. Being extremely reading compulsive, I am attracted by the beauty of mankind minds very much.
