Bio
Song Wang received his Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from the University of Waterloo in Dec. 2018, MS degree from Chinese Academy of Sciences (China) in Jun. 2014. Before that, he got both his BE degree in Software Engineering and BHRM degree in Human Resource Management from Sichuan University (China) in Jun. 2011. He works at the intersection of Software Engineering and Machine Learning. More specifically, his research work focuses on taking the advantages of ML techniques in data process, knowledge representation, classification, NLP, etc., to address challenging issues of software reliability practices. His research interests include software engineering, software reliability, program analysis, software testing, and machine learning. The tools and techniques developed in his research have already helped detect hundreds of true bugs in open source and commercial projects. He had also worked with various industry companies, either as a research intern at Microsoft Research or as a developer intern at Morgan Stanley Capital International, Yahoo, and Baidu.
