Brief Biography
I am currently a Visiting Professor (full-time & fixed-term faculty member) at School of Computer Science and Engineering (SCSE), Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. I am also affiliated with RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project, Japan, as a Visiting Scientist (part-time). I was a Professor at College of Computer Science, Chongqing University, China. My main research interests lie in machine learning, data mining, and artificial intelligence, with a particular emphasis on weakly supervised machine learning and trustworthy machine learning. My long-term goal is to build effective, reliable, and explainable machine learning systems, which can learn from various types of complex data with limited supervision information.

Research Interests
My general research interests lie in machine learning and data science, with a particular emphasis on the following topics:
Weakly Supervised Learning:
- Partial-Label Learning [AAAI'19, ICML'20a, NeurIPS'20, ICLR'22a, KDD'22, NeurIPS'22a, ICLR'22b, TPAMI'23, KDD'23, ICCV'23a, NeurIPS'23a]
- Noisy-Label Learning [CVPR'20, IJCAI'20, AAAI'22a, TMLR'22, TNNLS'22, CVPR'23, ICML'23a, IJCAI'23
, ICCV'23b]
- Complementary-Label Learning [ICML'20b, IJCAI'21, AISTATS'23]
- Weakly Supervised Binary Classification [ICML'21a, ICML'21b, ICLR'22c, NeurIPS'23b]
- Learning from Aggregate Observations [KDD'21, TKDE'23, ICML'23b]
- Weakly Supervised Regression [AAAI'23a, ICML'23c]
Trustworthy Deep Learning:
- Adversarial Machine Learning [NeurIPS'21a, AAAI'22b, NeurIPS'22c]
- Out-of-Distribution Data [ICML'22a, ICML'22b, NeurIPS'23c]
- Learning with Rejection [NeurIPS'22b, NeurIPS'23d, NeurIPS'23e]
- Model Calibration [NeurIPS'21b]
Recently, I am interested in foundation models with various fine-tuning strategies and would like to investigate the above research topics with foundation models.
