About Me

Hi, my name is Yin Lin (林茵 in Chinese). I am a fifth-year Ph.D. student in the Computer Science and Engineering Department at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I consider myself fortunate to be advised by Dr. H. V. Jagadish. I am a member of the Database group. My current research focuses on data equality systems preventing misuse and misinterpretation of big data.


Prior to joining UM as a Ph.D. student, I got my bachelor's degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2019.
