Hi there! I am pursuing the Ph.D. degree with the College of Control Science and Engineering, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China, supervised by Prof. Jinming Xu. Previously, I received the B.Eng. degree in automation from the China University of Petroleum (East China), Qingdao, China, in 2020. I was a visiting Ph.D. student with the A*STAR Centre for Frontier AI Research (CFAR), Singapore, supervised by Prof. Joey Tianyi Zhou. My research interests include distributed machine learning, large-scale optimization, security and privacy.
