"AI For Good"

OUR Mission: Make AI More EFFICIENT, Scalable & ACCESSIBLE

Our group aims to develop machine learning (ML) technologies over Big Data. Our research interests encompass the general areas of machine learning, data mining, databases, and theoretical algorithms.

Basically, we focus on advancing the efficiency, scalability, and accessibility of every cycle of ML over Big Data mostly by designing intelligent learning algorithms that can efficiently train or analyze the vast amounts of data. In the academic perspective, we always pursue research of the highest quality in theory as well as in practice, and attempt to publish solid papers in top-tier venues in the field of big data and machine learning, including ICML, NeurIPS, ICLR, AAAI, KDD, ICDM, SIGMOD, VLDB, ICDE, etc. For more top-tier conferences and journals, please refer to the following Google Scholar pages: Artificial Intelligence, Data Mining & Analysis, and Databases & Information Systems.
