About Me

I am a Ph.D. researcher at Australian AI Intelligence Institute (AAII), University of Technology Sydney, working on Federated Intelligence. I have worked as a Research Intern at Shenzhen Institue of Meteorological Innovation (Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Weather Research Center for Monitoring Warning and Forecasting). Previously, I earned my Master at Hainan University. My research focuses on bridging the gap between academic research and real-world applications.

Remark. I believe that collaboration is essential for success, similar to the fundamental principles of federated learning. If our research areas (see Research Interest) intersect, I am eager to engage in collaboration, aiming to acquire valuable insights from others. Please feel free to drop me an email.
