Short Curriculum

I am currently a post-doc in Database Technology Group at University of Zurich. I received my Ph.D education in Computer Science at University of Milan - Bicocca from 2009 to 2012. During my Ph.D study, I visited AT&T Labs – Research in NJ, USA during 2010 and 2012. Previously, I obtained a M.S. in Computer Science at Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications and a B.S. in Electronic Engineering at the same university. My research interests are in data quality, data cleaning and data integration.

Research Interests

Databases, with an emphasis on data quality, data cleaning and data integration, particularly in record linkage, also interested in large-scale data analytics.

Projects

Chronos - Linking records with value diversity

In many data sets records that refer to the same real-world entity can have very diverse values, because of erroneous values, value evolution over time, or "local" properties for members in the same group. We study how to link records with tolerance to fairly high diversity of values.
