I’m Liping Yi, a Tenure-Track Associate Professor, Master’s Supervisor at the College of Intelligence and Computing, Tianjin University. I joined the Machine Learning and Data Mining Laboratory in June 2025, led by Prof. Qinghua Hu. I received my Ph.D. in June 2025 from the College of Computer Science, Nankai University, under the supervision of Prof. Gang Wang and Prof. Xiaoguang Liu. From December 2023 to November 2024, I conducted a Ph.D. joint research program in the College of Computing and Data Science (CCDS) at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, working with Prof. Han Yu. My research interests lie in federated learning and large-model multi-agent systems, with a focus on key challenges such as model heterogeneity, communication efficiency, personalized modeling, and system fairness. I have published over 20 research papers in top-tier international journals and conferences, including IEEE TSC, IEEE TMC, ICDE, NeurIPS, ICML, ICCV, AAAI, IJCAI, ACM MM and etc. I have also been invited to serve as a reviewer for CCF-A conferences such as NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, ICCV, AAAI and etc. I have led multiple research projects, including the “CAST Young Talent Support Project (Doctoral Program)” funded by the China Association for Science and Technology.
