Chengshuai Zhao

I am a first year computer science Ph.D. student at ASU, currently working in the Data Mining and Machine Leraning (DMML) Lab advised by Prof. Huan Liu.

Before that, I obtained a Bachelor's degree from Huazhong Agricultural University. And I had a wonderful time as an undergraduate researcher focusing on network analysis and graph representation learning in the BioMedical Big Data Mining (BBDM) Lab supervised by Prof. Wen Zhang. I am also interested in transfer learning and more topics in computer science.
