I completed my Ph.D. in Information Technology from the Department of Computer Science at George Mason University. Before that, I received MBA in Management Information Systems from California State University, Chico and BEng in Electronic Engineering from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology respectively. My teaching interests include Database Management Systems, Data Mining, Artificial Intelligence, Machine/Deep Learning, Data Analytics, Decision Support System, Data Structures, Computational Algorithms, and Software Application Programming. My research interests are Decision Guidance and Support Systems (DGSS), including Decision Optimization Models, Computational Algorithms, Machine/Deep Learning, Data Analytics and Visualization, Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, and related DGSS Applications, to guide domain-specific decision makers to make better decisions and provide them with actionable recommendations.
