I am a professor in the Institute of Communications Engineering at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU). Prior to this position, I was affiliated with the Department of Communication Engineering, National Taipei University (NTPU), Taiwan, where I served as an assistant professor from 2015 to 2018 and an associate professor from 2018 to 2020. From 2013 to 2015, I held the position of a postdoctoral research associate in the ECE at Texas A&M University, where I earned my Ph.D. degree in May 2013. I spent the summer of 2012 at Bell Labs as a research intern. My research interests encompass information theory, network information theory, modern coding theory, and wireless communications. More recently, I have also been working in the area of data science and machine learning.
