About

Longlon Lin is an Associate Professor at the College of Computer and Information Science, Southwest University, China. He received a Ph.D. from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), China, in 2022, advised by Prof. Pingpeng Yuan and Prof. Dongxiao yu. Besides, from 2018 to now, his co-supervisor is Prof. Rong-Hua Li from Beijing Institute of Technology. His work has been published in several top conferences and journals including VLDB, KDD, AAAI, CIKM, ICDCS, and IEEE TSMC.

Research Interests

Graph Machine Learning、LLM-based Text Attribute Graph Analysis、Graph Clustering、Personalized PageRank.

[招生信息] : 每年计划招3-5名硕士，研究:

Graph Machine Learning: 主要关注可扩展性、鲁棒性、图增强. 可扩展性是如何保质地快速学习十亿级别的图. 鲁棒性和图增强有很多重叠，他们都是data-centric graph learning, 都是对原始图做改变，以防御攻击或者让学习质量更好.

AI-empowered Community Mining：社区挖掘目前分为基于规则(Rule-based)的和基于学习的(Learning-based). 我们课题组关注的是如何将两种融合以在质量和效率上达到trade-off.

欢迎保研或者考研的学生给我发email (longlonglin@swu.edu.cn). 同时长期招收大一/大二本科生,但有如下要求：1.以培养科研方法论为目的(能发CCF B/中科院二区为佳); 2.由我亲自指导并给出具体的研究问题和算法框架。细节和实验由你独立完成但随时随地可讨论. 3.科研的周期较长，不做短平快的工作.
