I am a Ph.D student in Biologically Inspired Neural and Dynamical Systems (Binds) Lab at University of massachesetts Amherst (UMass). My advisor is Professor Hava Siegelmann.
I am now working with on an interesting project of cognictive system.
We are building a memory system which can reconsolidate info like human, after a memory recall or an input of repeated information. An adaptive inference engine is built so that our system can learn, remember knowledge of common sense and integrate the information to make reasonable conclusion accrodingly.
Additionally, natural language is used as input and output of our system so that it is more easy for our system to give feedback during a conversation with people.
Research Interests
My interest in computer science is mainly focuses on algorithms, machine learning, Inference Engine, Data Mining, Information Retrieval, bio-inspired computing system and bioinformatics
Previous work includes:
- Analysis of searching strategies in solution space for Swarm intelligence and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) Algorithm
- Encoding methods for Multiple Sequence Alignment problem in bioinformatics
Academic Background
I pursued my undergraduate study in the Applied Mathematic Department in South China University of Technology and got my bachelor degree in 2003.
After that I continued my postgraduate study in the Computer Science Department at the same university.
