Biography

I am a postdoctoral fellow in SNAP Lab, Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University, co-advised by Prof. Peter Steenkiste and Prof. Srinivasan Seshan. Prior to CMU, I obtained my Ph.D. degree from AIoT Lab at The Chinese University of Hong Kong supervised by Prof. Guoliang Xing. I obtained my Bachelor's degree with honors in Electrical Engineering at Zhejiang University.

My research interests lie at the intersection of mobile and networking systems, robotics and real-time machine learning. My previous research focuses on cooperative autonomous driving, with a vision of advancing autonomous driving with the cooperation between roadside smart infrastructure and vehicles, as well as among connected vehicles. I have designed and implemented several infrastructure-vehicle cooperative systems on 2D/3D perception, localization, and HD mapping that have been tested in real-world scenarios.

I am honored to have received the MobiCom 2023 Best Community Contribution Award, the Best Artifact Award, Best Artifact Award Runner-up, and Best Demo Award Runner-up at MobiCom 2024, the 2024 MIT EECS Rising Star, the 2024 ACM SIGBED China Chapter Doctoral Dissertation Award, the Gold Prize at the 49th International Exhibition of Inventions Geneva, the 2023 International Doctoral Forum Best Paper Award, and the N2Women Young Researcher Fellowship.
