📜 About

I am an Associate Professor at the School of Computer Science and Engineering, Nanjing University of Science and Technology (NJUST), affiliated with Prof. Junlong Zhou's research team. I received my Ph.D. at the School of Computer Science and Technology, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in June 2022, supervised by Prof. Hongli Xu and Prof. Liusheng Huang. Prior to that, I received my B.S. degree from USTC in 2014. From July 2022 to July 2024, I served as a post-doctoral researcher at Purple Mountain Laboratories. I have published more than 20 papers in top journals and conferences, including IEEE JSAC, IEEE TMC, IEEE INFOCOM, IEEE/ACM ToN. My research interests include edge intelligence, federated learning, and distributed machine learning.
