About Me

I am an assistant professor at the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, the University of Hong Kong, and the Principal Investigator (PI) of the Wireless Information & Intelligence (WILL) lab. I obtained my Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Florida in 2022, supervised by Prof. Yuguang Fang, and my B.Eng. degree from Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu, China, in 2017, supervised by Prof. Gang Liu. My research interests include wireless networks, edge computing, distributed learning, and network security.

Research Interests

My group explores the optimization of distributed AI in (wireless) networked systems. Our research interest lies in the fundamental trade-offs in communication networks and networked AI systems, as well as practical edge AI applications that address pressing societal challenges, including but not limited to
  • Networked Edge AI

    • Resource-constrained split/federated learning
    • Edge inference
    • Mobile edge computing

  • Applications of Edge AI

    • On-device large language models (LLMs)
    • Edge AI for mental well-being
    • Mobile health

  • Security and privacy in ML

    • Privacy-preserving split/federated learning
    • Security and privacy in LLMs
