Biography

I am currently a PhD student in Information Science at the University of Washington. My research interest revolves around Fairness in Machine Learning, Spatial-temporal Prediction, and Urban Mobility. I received my B.E. in Remote Sensing from Wuhan University, China, and received my M.S. in Ecology from Department of Earth System Science, Tsinghua University, China.
