Upon receiving my M.Phil. and Ph.D. degrees from the Chinese University of Hong Kong and a B.Sc. degree from the University of Manitoba, I joined the Department of Computing, Hong Kong Polytechnic University and is now an associate professor. My primary research interests are in the study of intelligence, learning and recognition and their applications to a wide spectrum of tasks which involves text data, time series data, multimedia data, social network data, bioinformatics data, etc. I published over 80 research papers in major international journals, including IEEE TFS, IEEE TNN, IEEE TEC, IEEE TSMC-B, Pattern Recognition and Neural Networks. I also serve on program committees of top international conferences, including IEEE ICDM and ICPR.
