Jinglin Peng is a PhD candidate and researcher with nine years of hands-on experience building interactive data analytics systems that make large-scale insight extraction practical and fast. His work focuses on Approximate Query Processing—where he has developed a hybrid samples-and-cubes AQP system, a sampler-combination framework, and an online aggregation engine for partitioned data—and on simplifying exploratory data analysis via DataPrep.EDA, a Python task-centric EDA library that has gained significant traction (~1k stars and ~200k downloads). He has industrial research experience from an Alibaba internship and contributes to open-source data tooling, fixing visualization and EDA bugs in the dataprep project to improve usability. Based in the Greater Vancouver area, he blends rigorous academic research with pragmatic engineering, often improving estimation quality and interactivity by orders of magnitude.
