Xiao Xie

Assistant Professor

My research interests are Data Visualization and Human-computer interaction, with a focus on the visual analytics of sports data. Currently, I’m a (tenure-track) assistant professor at Department of Sports Science, Zhejiang University.

I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Zhejiang University (ZJU) in 2020, where I worked with my supervisor Prof. Yingcai Wu and IDG. Prior to my Ph.D. studies, I received my B.S. in Software Engineering from Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU) in 2015.
