Personal profile

Personal profile

I was born and raised in Xi'an. After completing my basic education and undergraduate studies there, I moved to Norway for a 12-year period, during which I studied, worked, and lived. Since 2022, I have been a part of XJTLU, where I am actively involved in research at the intersection of human-centric computing and software engineering. Prior to XJTLU, I worked at University of Oslo, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and Parametric Technology Corporation. My research focuses on deeply integrating human, machine/robot, and IoT devices to enhance collective intelligence. I lead curriculum development at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. I have supervised 1 PhD student to successful completion in 2023. I welcome highly self-motivated undergraduate students to join my research team, as well as ambitious master's students who aspire to pursue a Ph.D. degree.
