About me
I am a post doctoral researcher at ISR, Carnegie Mellon University, working with Prof. Fei Fang. I obtained my Ph.D. at IIIS, Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Pingzhong Tang, and my B.E. at Department of Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University.
My research interest lies in the interface of economics and computation, especially auction and mechanism design, game theory, multi-agent systems and machine learning.
