Hello everyone! I am a forth-year phd student advised by Prof. Yuanming Shi at School of Information Science and Technology (SIST), ShanghaiTech University, majoring in Computer Science (CS).

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 research interest lies in the intersection of machine learning and communication networks, in particular federated learning, mathematical optimization as well as their applications to satellite edge AI and space computing power networks [Google Scholar].
