About Me

I am currently a tenure-track assistant professor in the Intelligent Transportation Thrust of the Systems Hub, at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Guangzhou Campus. I was a Postdoctoral Associate at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, working with Signal Processing in Networking and Communications (SPiNCOM) supervised by Prof. Georgios B. Giannakis from 2021 to 2023. Before that, I received the B.Eng. degree from the School of Electronic and Information Engineering, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou, China, in 2017, and the Ph.D. degree in Information Engineering from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2021, respectively. My research focuses on the optimization and machine learning in wireless communications and networking, with particular interests in Internet of Vehicles and edge intelligence.
