Openings
I am an incoming Assistant Professor at the School of Data Science, Lingnan University (LU), Hong Kong. I am looking for self-motivated Ph.D. students (Fall 2026) with strong backgrounds in machine learning, wireless communications, computer vision, and mathematical optimization. If you are interested in joining my group, please get in touch with me via email with your resume, transcripts, and sample publications (if any).
About Me
I am currently a VPRDO Research Assistant Professor at the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). I received my Ph.D. degree in Information Engineering from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) in 2022, and my B.Eng. degree in Information Engineering from South China University of Technology (SCUT) in 2017. My research interests include spatial perception and immersive communications, GenAI for communications, distributed and federated learning, and edge AI systems.
