Introduction

My name is Zhaoqiang Guo (郭肇强), born in 1994. I received my Bachelor’s degree from Nanjing University of Science and Technology in 2017, and obtained my Ph.D. from Nanjing University in 2022, under the supervision of Professor Yuming Zhou (周毓明). My doctoral research focused on software quality assurance techniques, such as bug localization, self-admitted technical debts, and software defect prediction. Currently, I am working as a Senior Engineer at Huawei, where I conduct research on AI for Software Engineering (AI4SE). Feel free to reach out for academic discussions.
