Jialin Chen

I am Jialin Chen, a second-year computer science Ph.D. student at Yale University advised by Professor Rex Ying.

I am generally interested in deep learning on graph-structured data, including:

  • graph representation learning and efficient pretraining on graphs,
  • explainability and trustworthiness of graph models,
  • graph learning applications

Previously, I obtained my B.S. degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) in 2022. I majored in mathematics and applied mathematics (Zhiyuan Honors Program)
