Openings

We are looking for self-motivated postgraduate students, undergraduate students, and postdoctoral fellows to join our research on large AI models, with a particular focus on edge AI applications.

Our goal is to bring large-model intelligence to low-end devices at the network edge, making AI services more accessible, fast, and privacy-preserving. Key research directions are as follows:

• Compressing large models and accelerating inference to reduce computational overhead;

• Enabling collaborative inference across user devices and cloud servers to balance computational overhead and bandwidth consumption;

• Leveraging generative models for data compression to reduce bandwidth consumption;

• Optimizing large models for personalized downstream tasks, such as agent-based applications;

• Enhancing privacy protection for user data during large model inference.

If you are interested in joining our group, please send your CV, transcripts, rankings, and representative publications (if any) to jiawei.shao@nwpu.edu.cn, with a copy to jiawei.shao@connect.ust.hk.

We maintain a long-standing collaboration with the Institute of Artificial Intelligence (TeleAI), China Telecom. Outstanding students may be recommended for internships there, with access to substantial GPU resources to support the research projects.
