Yongqian Sun (孙永谦)

I am an associate professor and doctoral supervisor at Nankai University, and a researcher at the Tianjin Key Laboratory of Software Experience and Human-Computer Interaction. I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Tsinghua University in 2018. Since starting my career, I have published over 40 high-quality papers, more than 30 of which were as the first or corresponding author. I hold 10 national invention patents and 2 software copyrights. I have undertaken one National Natural Science Foundation of China project and one Tianjin Natural Science Foundation project. Additionally, I have led more than 10 joint research projects with companies such as Huawei, ByteDance, Alibaba, and Tencent. I was honored with the Best Paper Award and Best Industrial Paper Award at ISSRE 2024 (a CCF B-class international conference), and received the First Prize for Scientific and Technological Progress of China Electronics Society. I was also selected into the Tianjin “131” Innovative Talents Development Program.
