I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the IoT Thrust, Information Hub, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou). I received my Ph.D. degree from the ECE, University of Toronto, supervised by Prof. Baochun Li. My research interests have focused on distributed machine learning and federated learning, especially the training of Large Language Models in today's edge computing and metaverse environments. I am passionate about continuing my work in these exciting yet inter-disciplinary areas of research, embodied AI with multi-agent systems and straddling distributed systems.
