个人简介

我是广东工业大学博士生导师、二级教授，现任数据挖掘与信息检索实验室主任，国家优秀青年科学基金获得者。 我分别于2005年和2010年获得华南理工大学应用数学学士学位和计算机科学博士学位。 我的研究主要围绕因果发现、因果学习与深度学习的理论及应用展开。我主持了国家优秀青年科学基金、科技部 “科技创新 2030” 重大项目、国家自然科学基金 - 区域创新发展联合基金（广东）等多项重点课题。 我曾获得广东省自然科学奖、中国专利奖等奖项。 现担任 IEEE TPAMI 副主编、Neural Networks 执行编委、Fundamental Research 青年编委，并担任 NeurIPS、ICML、ICLR 等会议的领域主席（Area Chair）。

我的研究围绕人工智能底层一个尚未解决的问题：：大多数 AI 模型能揭示变量间的相关性，却无法回答 “改变 X 后 Y 会如何变化，以及背后的原因”—— 这正是因果问题，也是网络故障诊断、临床决策、营销定价等真实场景中一切可靠决策的核心。 在开放、嘈杂的真实世界中实现稳定的因果建模，是当前领域的前沿挑战。DMIR 实验室是国内最早专注于因果发现与因果机器学习的团队之一，我们致力于补上大模型的关键短板：不只是认识“世界是什么”，而是理解“如果我们行动，世界会变成什么样”。
