Prof. LI Xin (李昕教授)

Xin is a professor in the Department of Information Systems at the City University of Hong Kong.

• In the 2000s, he studied graph kernel and graph mining.
• In the 2010s, he employed machine learning (text mining, image mining, and graph mining) in empirical studies on e-commerce, opensource software, and financial market.
• In the 2020s, he expands to more topics on technology and digital economy, such as the efficiency, fairness, and inclusiveness of AI and platforms.

Xin has 120+ publications/60+ journal publications, which are on MISQ, ISR, JMIS, INFORMS JOC, DSS, I&M, IEEE/ACM Transactions, Nature Nanotechnology, and other channels. He has received about 30 external and internal grants as PI and Co-I. Please refer to his personal website (http://www.is.cityu.edu.hk/staff/xin.li/) for details. His studies are also used in real-world applications in large banks and Internet companies.

He is a senior member of IEEE and ACM, and a member of INFORMS.
