Brief Bio
I am currently an Associate Professor in the Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering of Purdue University. Before joining Purdue in January 2021, I was an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York. I got my PhD from Computer Science Department at University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign in 2011 under the supervision of Prof. Jiawei Han.
I received M.E. and B.E. from the Computer Science and Technology Department
at Harbin Institute of Technology
in China.
For Prospective Students
I am looking for motivated Ph.D. students who are interested in data mining and related areas. Please send me an email with the title "Prospective PhD Student Fall 2024" and attach your CV if you are interested. You can also directly apply to the Computer Engineering PhD Program at Purdue ECE.

Research Interests
I am broadly interested in data and information analysis with a
focus on data mining. In particular, I am
interested in information veracity analysis, multi-source data analysis, knowledge graphs, text mining, data and model efficiency, fairness and interpretation, transfer learning, federated learning, crowdsourcing, data stream mining, and anomaly detection. I am also
interested in various data
mining applications in healthcare, social science, criminal justice, biology, transportation, and education.
