About Me

I am currently an Associate Professor in the School of Management at Tianjin University of Commerce, China. I received my B.E. degree in Logistics Engineering from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), Beijing, China, in 2011. I received the M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering and the Ph.D. degree in Management Science and Engineering (under the supervision of Prof. Zhen He) from Tianjin University, Tianjin, China, in 2016. I was a Visiting Scholar (under the supervision of Prof. Mengjie Zhang and Prof. Bing Xue) at the Evolutionary Computation Research Group (ECRG), Victoria University of Wellington (VUW), Wellington, New Zealand, in 2018.
