Hi! I'm Yangxin Fan. Currently, I am a PhD candidate in Computer Science at the Case Western Reserve University, advised by Professor. Yinghui Wu (https://yinghwu.github.io/)
My main research interests include Data Mining, Machine Learning, Causal Inference, and Network Analysis with their applications in Computational Social Science, Health & Biomedical Informatics, and Material Science.
Besides research, I enjoy Photography and Spaceflight.

Selected Projects
1. Fraud detection models and trust level validation in Mobile Money Transactions (MMT)
Goal: To develop a service module train a series of fraud detection classifiers and choose top k best models and a client module which can validate the functionality of selected models and assign trust levels for mobile money transaction fraud detection.
