| About meI am a tenure-track assistant professor at the School of Computing, Montclair State University. I received my Ph.D. from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong in 2021, supervised by Prof. Jianwei Huang.  I was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Davis, from Dec. 2021- Jun. 2024, advised by Prof. Xin Liu. Research Interests
        I am generally interested in research that spans both artificial intelligence/machine learning and game theory.  
         
            Machine learning algorithm and theory: split learning, federated learning, online learning
