Biography

I’m a 4th-year Ph.D. student majoring in computer science at SMCLab, Sun Yat-sen University and working on Mobile Edge Computing with Prof. Xu Chen. Prior to that, I received my B.E. degree from the School of Computer Science and Engineering, Sun Yat-sen University, where I worked with Prof. Yanghui Rao on NLP and Topic Models. I also gained two periods of valuable industry experience during my undergraduate in Tencent. I have a passion for all kinds of sports, especially basketball, and I once served as the captain of the basketball team at my college.

Recently, I’m enthusiastic about building resource-efficient AI (especially LLM) systems (hosting large language models at the edge) and applications with mobile AI (intelligent personal agents on mobile devices) powered by LLM.
