Biography

Only do what interests you in your life. –––Jianqing Zhang

I am Jianqing (Tsing) Zhang, a first-year PhD student in Computer Science at Shanghai Jiao Tong University under the supervision of Jian Cao. I completed my Master's degree at the same institution and was fortunate to work with Ruhui Ma and Tao Song in 2023. I earned my Bachelor's degree at Hangzhou Dianzi University and was fortunate to work with Dongjin Yu and Dongjing Wang in 2020. My research interests include Federated Learning, Transfer Learning, Edge AI, and Recommender Systems. Both my PhD advisor and I believe that collaboration, which is also one of the core ideas of Federated Learning, is essential for scientific research. So far, I have worked with Yang Liu from Tsinghua University, Yang Hua from Queen's University Belfast, and Hao Wang from Louisiana State University. I am sincerely grateful for their invaluable knowledge and support. Additionally, I am also a photographer with a passion for capturing the beauty of the world.
