About Me

I am a postdoctoral research fellow at Cyber Security Lab, Nanyang Technological University, working with Prof. Yang Liu. I received my Ph.D. and B.E. degrees in Software Engineering from Fudan University in 2023 and 2018, under the supervision of Prof. Xin Peng.

My research interests lie in the crossroads between artificial intelligence and software engineering. Specifically, I am deeply engrossed in the realms of:

  • Data- and Knowledge-driven Software Engineering (AI4SE)
  • Software Analytics
  • Software Maintenance

My overarching research mission revolves around enhancing both productivity and security within the realm of software development. This is accomplished through:

  • Meticulous Analysis of Software Data
  • Extraction of Software-related Knowledge
  • Strategic Utilization of Cutting-edge AI Technologies (e.g., LLMs and KG)
