About Me
I am now a Research Scientist at Facebook. I received my Ph.D. degree in March 2019 from the University of Wisconsin - Madison. I worked with Prof. Grace Wahba and Prof. Vikas Singh on machine learning and statistics. The topics include deep neural networks (DNN), kernel machines, multi-source datasets modeling (DA/TL/MTL), large scale spatio-temporal modeling, graphical causal models, etc.
