Dr. Jindong Wang is currently a Senior Researcher at Microsoft Research Asia. He obtained his Ph.D from Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2019. He visited Qiang Yangâs group at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2018. His research interest includes robust machine learning, transfer learning, semi-supervised learning, and federated learning. His recent interest is large language models. He has published over 50 papers with 7000 citations at leading conferences and journals such as ICLR, NeurIPS, TKDE, TASLP etc. He has 6 highly cited papers according to Google Scholar metrics. He received the best paper award at ICCSEâ18 and IJCAIâ19 federated learning workshop and the prestigous excellent Ph.D thesis award (only 1 at ICT each year). In 2022 and 2023, he was selected as one of the AI 2000 Most Influential Scholars by AMiner between 2013-2023. He serves as the senior program committee member of IJCAI and AAAI, and reviewers for top conferences and journals like ICML, NeurIPS, ICLR, CVPR, TPAMI, AIJ etc. He opensourced several projects to help build a better community, such as transferlearning, torchSSL, USB, personalizedFL, and robustlearn, which received over 12K stars on Github. He published a textbook Introduction to Transfer Learning to help starters quickly learn transfer learning. He gave tutorials at IJCAIâ22, WSDMâ23, and KDDâ23.
Research interest: robust machine learning, out-of-distribution / domain generalization, transfer learning, semi-supervised learning, federated learning, and related applications such as activity recognition and computer vision. These days, Iâm particularly interested in Large Language Models (LLMs) evaluation and enhancement. See this page for more details. Interested in internship or collaboration? Contact me.
