Cheng Gong

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Computer Science at the City University of Hong Kong, advised by Prof. Qingfu Zhang (Chair Professor, IEEE Fellow), and Prof. Hisao Ishibuchi (Chair Professor, IEEE Fellow). My research interest include multi-objective optimization, evolutionary computation, optimization algorithm, and machine learning. I worked on multi-objective recommendation system with Prof. Chen Ma during my PhD studies. I recevied my M.E. from Peking Univeristy, advised by Prof. Qining Wang, where my research works focus on robotics.
