ZHANG, Mingxing Postdoc Researcher @ Graduate School at Shenzhen, Tsinghua University Chief Algorithm Expert @ Sangfor Innovation Institute Email: zhang.mingxing(at)outlook.com [ Education | Honors | Publications ]

I'm currently a Postdoc Researcher (assistant researcher) of Graduate School at Shenzhen, Tsinghua University. Simultaneously, I'm also the Chief Algorithm Expert of Sangfor Innovation Institute. I'm interested in building systems for supporting data analyzing algorithms and designing new analyzing algorithm if it does not exist yet. My current research focuses on abnormal detection, especially in fields like cloud management and cyber security.

Sangfor Technologies is a leading vendor of enterprise-level network security and private cloud. As an excellent employer of China elected by the FORTUNE magazine, we are contiguously hiring and soliciting external collaborations. Please contact me if you are interested.
