Dr.Yan (Michael) Zhang joined School of Artificial Intelligence (Also known as: The Center for Information Science, The Department of Machine Intelligence, or The Key Laboratory of Machine Perception) at Peking University in July 1995. He received his Ph.D in 2002 from The Department of Computer Science and Technology (Now School of Computer Science) at Peking University. His advisors were Prof. Shiwei Tang and Prof. Dongqing Yang.
Yan visited The Department of Computer Science at The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign from August 2004 to August 2005 as a visiting scholar, working with Prof. Yuanyuan Zhou (Now at UCSD). Yan also visited The Department of Computer Science and Engineering at The Chinese University of Hong Kong from September 1996 to January 1997, working with Prof. Irwin King. Yan would thank Prof. Zhou and Prof. King, from whom he learned so much.
Yan's research interests are in intelligent information retrieval, big data processing and web technologies. He is particularly interested in information discovery, integration and searching on the web. His research group is named as DAIR (Data Analysis and Intelligent Retrieval).
