About

Haitao Yuan (袁海涛 in Chinese) is currently a research fellow working with Prof. Gao Cong at College of Computing and Data Science, NTU. Prior to that, he received his Ph.D. degree in computer science from Tsinghua University, supervised by Prof. Guoliang Li and Prof. Ling Feng. Furthermore, Haitao is fortunate to enjoy a close academic collaboration with Prof. Zhifeng Bao.

Haitao’s research focuses on developing innovative technologies that can effectively and efficiently utilize A(AI) and B(Big Data) to benefit people. To achieve this goal, Haitao concentrates on three key research areas (SIR):

• Building Scalable data storage systems
• Creating Intelligent mobile applications
• Developing Robust algorithms and models

He has published 20+ papers in the top DB/DM conferences and journals (SIGMOD, VLDB, ICDE, WWW, TKDE, etc).

Feel free to catch me if interested to discuss ideas or work together. 😜
