I am an agentic researcher. I received my Ph.D. from the Department of Computer Science at City University of Hong Kong, advised by Prof. Weitao Xu. My work has been recognized through several prestigious accolades, including Best Paper Awards at IEEE PerCom 2023 and ACM EIFCom 2024, and a Cover Article in IEEE JBHI.
My research focuses on the following areas:
Systems
for Sensing
Security
