Dr. Jiafeng Guo is currently a Researcher of Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, a professor of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, as well as a PI of Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence. He is the director of the Key Lab of network data science and technology, ICT. He received his B.E. in Computer Science and Technology from the University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, China, in 2004 and earned his Ph.D. in Computer Software and Theory from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China, in 2009.

Dr. Guo has worked on a number of topics related to web search and data mining, including query representation and understanding, learning to rank, and text modeling. His current research is focused on neural models for information retrieval (Neural IR) and natural language understanding. He has won the Best Paper Award in ACM CIKM (2011), Best Student Paper Award in ACM SIGIR (2012), Best Full Paper Runner-up Award in ACM CIKM (2017) and Best Paper Award in ACM WSDM (2022).
