About me

I am now working as Assistant Researcher of the Department of Computer Science and Technology, and the Institute for Internet Judiciary in Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. I am also a visiting researcher of Göttingen University of Germany. I hold a Ph.D. in Law and have postdoctoral research experience in Computer Science and law. My primary research interests revolve around Artificial Intelligence & Law, including topics such as legal information retrieval and the application of artificial intelligence in judicial systems.
