AboutDr. Ma received her PhD degree from the Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management, The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2020. Her research include Natural Language Processing, Social Network Analysis and Mining, Rumor Detection and Fact Verification. During Dec 2018—Aug 2019, she was a visiting scholar at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. During Dec 2019—Feb 2020, she was a visiting scholar at Institute for Basic Science (IBS), South Korea. Before that, she obtained both of her B.E. and M.E. degree from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications in 2013 and 2016 respectively. In recent years, she served as Program Committee Member for ACL, EMNLP, CIKM, AAAI, etc, and was invited to review for journals such as TIST, TKDE, TOMM, etc.
