Research Interests
Interdisciplinary studies of artificial intelligence and science (AI for Science), including bioinformatics, medical image analysis, cheminformatics, and the design of new materials.
Research Topics
- Molecular Representation Learning: Developing deep learning, self-supervised learning, and large language models to decipher the properties, functions, and interactions of compound molecules and biological macromolecules. Our methods are further extended to predict chemical reaction outcomes and facilitate retrosynthesis, aiming to speed up drug discovery and materials design.
- Biomedical image understanding: Designing semi-supervised and multi-modal learning approaches for pattern recognition and segmentation of biomedical images, with applications to biomarker identification and disease outcome prediction.
