CV

PhD in Network Science

Department of Network and Data Science, Central European University (Vienna, Austria)

MSc in Mathematics

School of Mathematical Sciences, Queen Mary University of London (London, UK)

• 96/100, distinction.
• Modelling higher-order network dynamics in the presence of triadic interactions
  • Supervisor -- Prof. Dr. Ginestra Bianconi
  • Investigated the node dynamics on networks with triadic interactions, in which a node can regulate positively/negatively the interaction between two other nodes.
  • Showed that the triadic interactions result in nontrivial behaviours of conditional correlation coefficients between the node states and that the triadic interactions in real networks may be inferred from the conditional correlation coefficients.

BEng in Applied Physics

School of Engineering, Hokkaido University (Sapporo, Japan)

• 4.18/4.30. Nitobe College Summa Cum Laude.
• Bifractality of fractal scale-free networks
  • Supervisor -- Prof. Dr. Kousuke Yakubo
  • Investigated analytically and numerically the multifractal property of fractal scale-free networks (FSFNs) generated by deterministic hierarchical, stochastic hierarchical, and non-hierarchical models.
  • Showed that all of them are bifractal and that the two local fractal dimensions implied by bifractality correspond to two types of substructures, one near the infinitely high-degree hubs and the other near finite-degree nodes that are infinitely distant from the infinitely high-degree hubs.

Exchange programme

Department of Physics, ETH Zurich (Zurich, Switzerland)

• Took courses in computational physics, superconductivity, and quantum information theory.
• Discontinued due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Data Scientist

Fujitsu Limited (Tokyo, Japan)

• Analysed large-scale datasets of newspaper articles using natural language processing and network analysis.
• Quantified the trends of markets by employing the dynamic topic model and developed a software that visualises the correlation between the trending topics/keywords and economic indices.
• Analysed the topology of collocation networks of keywords in the news articles and the bipartite networks of keywords and newspaper articles.
• Developed a portfolio in which the collocation networks are visualised and used to recommend related news articles or keywords.
