About me

Before I join The Chinese University of Hong Kong, I received my B.Eng. degree in Electronic Information Engineering and minor degree in Philosophy from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) in 2021. From January 2024 to June 2024, I visited Stanford University, ISL Lab, hosted by Professor Ayfer Özgür and supported by CUHK PhD IMPAC Award 2023–24. I will graduate in summer 2025 and I am looking for postdoc positions.

Research

Advisors: Professor Cheuk Ting Li and Professor Raymond W. Yeung

My research interests lie in network information theory and applications. With more details, I currently work on the following directons:

One-shot/Nonasymptotic Network Information Theory:

I prove one-shot achievability results, second-order results and asymptotic inner/outer bounds on classical network information theory problems. Currently, my primary focus is on lossy compression, channel simulation and interference channels.

My papers on this direction include: [Noisy Network Coding], [Information Hiding], [Oblivious Relaying], [Weighted Parity-Check Codes] and [Soft Polar Codes].

Wireless Communications:

I develop fundamental theory and low-complexity algorithms for large-scale networks in challenging environments. I also provide information-theoretic bounds on various multi-hop network settings, including noisy network coding, oblivious relaying and massive random access, and optimization frameworks over them.

My papers on this direction include: [Multiflow Optimization], [Noisy Network Coding], [Oblivious Relaying], [Massive Random Access] and Wireless Scheduling [a], [b], [c].
