Brief Biography
|
I am now working at Google Research (Seattle) on building automated debugging systems with machine learning techniques for Google-scale software products.
I completed my Ph.D. in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at University of Washington, advised by Prof. Michael Ernst. My Ph.D. thesis (entitled: Effective Program Analyses for Automated Software Testing and Error Diagnosis) lies within the software engineering area. In my thesis, I developed practical program analysis techniques and tools to improve software reliability and error diagnosis (see my papers at ISSTA'11, ASE'11, ICSE'13, ISSTA'13, and ICSE'14 for details).
