Hello everyone! I received my Ph.D. at School of Information Science and Technology (SIST), ShanghaiTech University advised by Prof. Yuanming Shi, majoring in Computer Science (CS).

I am currently a researcher in AI-Flow, the Institue of Artificial Intelligence, China Telecom (TeleAI), under the direction of Prof. Jiaowei Shao and Prof. Xuelong Li (Chief Technology Officer and Chief Scientist of China Telecom, and the director of TeleAI).

I was also in internship with the Nokia Bell Labs, Shanghai, China, May to September, 2025.

Earlier, I received my bachelor's degree in Electronic and Information Engineering from School of Electronic Engineering (SEE), Xidian University, in 2021.

My current research interest lies in edge large AI models (LAMs), in particular end-edge-cloud collaborative LAM inference and compression as well as their applications to satellite edge AI and space computing power networks [Google Scholar].
