Profile
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Data Intelligence Research Center at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I received my Ph.D. degree from the Department of Electronic Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University in March 2025, supervised by Prof. Xiaoying Gan and Prof. Xinbing Wang. I received my bachelor's degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University with honors in July 2020.
Together with Prof. Meng Jin, I lead the AI for Science group, where we explore machine learning methods for scientific discovery, including Earth system modeling and data-driven understanding of large-scale academic graphs. My research focuses on discovering heterogeneous structures and underlying knowledge from ubiquitous scientific data using advanced machine learning techniques.

Projects
Jingwei
AI-driven global ocean element reconstruction platformJingwei is an interdisciplinary platform for reconstructing long-term, global spatiotemporal variations of dissolved oxygen and other ocean elements from sparse observations. Built on a hybrid deep learning framework, it provides accurate reconstructions of ocean deoxygenation and supports mechanistic understanding of climate-driven ocean change. The name Jingwei comes from a mythical bird in Chinese mythology that persistently fills the sea with pebbles and twigs, echoing our effort to fill the gaps in sparse ocean observations with AI. The platform offers interactive data visualization, resource sharing, and continuous updates toward more ocean biogeochemical variables.
DDE DataExpo
Large-scale geoscience data discovery under the Deep-time Digital Earth programDDE DataExpo is a data discovery and integration system developed under the Deep-time Digital Earth (DDE) Program, the first big science program initiated by the International Union of Geological Sciences. As a key component of the DDE data infrastructure, DataExpo aims to discover, organize, and integrate global geological and Earth science data resources. The system has crawled and indexed more than one million websites using large-scale geoscience keywords and has identified over 200,000 geological data resources, providing a foundation for open, reusable, and knowledge-driven Earth science research.
X-index
Interdisciplinary research literature analysis on AcemapX-index is a research literature analysis tool developed on the Acemap platform to evaluate the academic value of papers from an interdisciplinary perspective. The system maps research outcomes onto disciplinary coordinate systems and quantitatively measures disciplinary diversity and conceptual novelty. It supports dynamic charts for tracking long-term concept evolution, identifies patterns such as tool-driven research, and provides concept heatmaps and data matrices for tracing cross-disciplinary innovation within large-scale literature collections.
