Luca Yu

Hey! I am Luca Jiang-Tao Yu, a PhD student at AIoT Lab, CDS, HKU in Hong Kong, advised by Prof. Chenshu Wu. Previously, I was a research assistant at MARS Lab, IIIS, THU and Shanghai Qi Zhi Institute in Shanghai and Beijing, China, advised by Prof. Hang Zhao. Before that, I was a research intern at Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications in Beijing, China, advised by Prof. Anfu Zhou.

I have special interests in:

human-centric AI, particularly in edge device-based healthcare and human-computer interaction.

cyber-physical systems, including embedded systems applications design, advanced and adaptive signal processing, and interpretable neural networks design for deep wireless sensing.

mobile computing, encompassing radar, Wi-Fi, acoustic as well as the novel sensor sensing applications.

I am open to collaboration and happy to discuss. If you're interested in my research, feel free to email me.
