Tao-Yang Fu’s Expertise I am a software engineer with Pinterest and I am responsible for developing and applying machine learning techniques to improve the search experience. He is currently working on two projects. The first involves query intent prediction, which detects user intent while searching, such as shopping intent. Afterwards, the detected intent scores are used as signals for other applications, such as to promote shoppable pins in the search results. The second project is regarding query spelling correction, which is a fundamental task in search. Before joining Pinterest, I studied a Ph.D. degree in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at the Pennsylvania State University (PSU), my primary research topics include representation learning, network mining, trajectory mining, and recommender systems. More specifically, I developed and explored machine learning models for patent citation recommendation, representation mining on heterogeneous information networks and trajectories for multiple prediction applications, e.g., link prediction in networks and travel time estimation. Before pursuing Ph.D. degree, I joined a startup in Taiwan. Our team developed a restaurant search engine (in Chinese). I performed research on developing and applying machine learning and data mining techniques on text mining including classification, opinion mining, and name entity recognition, in order to extract structured information from unstructured user generated webpages. Then, I led a B2B project in collaboration with Yahoo to extract structured data from Yahoo bidding pages. Programming languages: Python, Java, C++, C Fields: Data mining, Machine learning, Network mining, Trajectory mining, Recommendation systems Development: Software system architecture, Test driven development, Agile development
