Xi Chen 陈熙

Hi! I am a PhD candidate in computer science at University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMASS), where I am luckily advised by Przemyslaw Grabowicz. I also work closely with Brendan O'Connor, David Jurgen, Scott Hale, and Ethan Zuckerman. I led research at AWS AGI foundation, UCLA, Tsinghua University, and Zhipu AI (Chinese OpenAI) with advice from Jie Tang. I got a bachelor degree with nomination for Chinese Exceptional Student (1/6500) from Central South University.

My research is pioneering temporal-geographic graph of multilingual media text at global scale, with interdisciplinary study of machine learning, information retrieval, natural language processing, network science, and social science.

My curiosity links to philosophy, psychology, fine arts, economy, and politics. In leisure time, I enjoy playing tennis and strategy games. I ranked global top50 of Dota Autochess (50/millions, a world-class strategy game).
