Can Liu

I am a postdoc research fellow in College of Computing and Data Science (CCDS), Nanyang Technological University. I received my Ph.D. in Intelligent Science (2023), B.Sc. in Computer Science (2018), and B.Ec in Economics (2018) degrees from Peking University. My research interest lies in AI-driven data visualization and human-computer interaction, especially intelligent data interaction, intelligent visual design, and intelligent data management, .

I enjoy writing Chinese poetry and hiking, often at the same time. Visit this page to read some of my poems.
