Collaborations

Research partnerships, industrial research discussions, invited talks, and focused academic exchange.

University collaboration Contact section

Collaboration routes

The best exchanges start from a concrete research problem, benchmark, system question, or publication direction.

Academic

Joint research and resources

Paper collaboration, benchmark design, resource building, and student or lab exchange. Use dingjiandong2@huawei.com for university collaboration.

Industry

Production-scale research problems

Recommendation architecture, agent evaluation, retrieval systems, and data-intelligence problems at scale.

Talks

Invited talks and professional events

Focused talks on recommender systems, LLM agents, data mining, and applied AI systems.

Research internships

I recruit student research interns into the research directions on this site. Logistics such as location, working mode, and duration are discussed individually during the first conversation.

Research themes

Reliable recommendation under changing users, catalogs, and deployment constraints; auditable AI retrieval, including AI search, agent skill retrieval, and Semantic-ID interface diagnostics; and data-mining methods for weak and noisy evidence.

Background and skills

Solid machine-learning fundamentals and hands-on Python experience. Interest in recommendation, retrieval, or LLM systems matters more than a specific prior topic; published research or engineering work on large-scale systems is a plus.

How to apply

Email dingjiandong2@huawei.com with the subject starting "Research Intern Application". Include your CV, the period you are available, one or two research or code samples (links are fine), and the direction you want to work on.
