I am an associate researcher in the Web Search & Mining Group at Microsoft Research Asia in Beijing.

I received my B.S. and Master's degree from the Information and Engineering University, and my PhD degree in Electronic Engineering from Tsinghua University in July, 2005.

My major research interests include: 

• Web image retrieval, which leverages image meta data, surrounding texts and hyperlinks to help improve search performance
• large-scale image auto-annotation
• online image advertising.

Here is my CV.
