Fuli Feng is a Professor in both School of Data Science and School of Cyber Science and Technology in University of Science and Technology of China. I received B.Eng. from Beihang University in July 2015 and PhD from National University of Singapore in August 2019. I have 100 publications appeared in several top conferences such as SIGIR, SIGKDD, WWW, and ACL, and journals including TKDE, TOIS, and TPAMI. I received the Best Paper Honourable Mention in SIGIR 2021 and Best Poster Award in WWW 2018. My research interests include information retrieval, data mining, and multi-media analytics, particularly in machine learning techniques and applications such as causal inference, graph neural networks, adversarial learning, multi-source learning, recommender systems, FinTech, and text mining. Moreover, I have served as the AC or SPC/PC-member for top-tier conferences including SIGIR, WWW, SIGKDD, NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, ACL, and the invited reviewer for prestigious journals such as TOIS, TKDE, TPAMI, TNNLS, JASA, and Nature Sustainability.
