BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Yang Li received his B.E. and M.E. degrees in Electronic Information Engineering from Beihang University, Beijing, China, in 2012 and 2015, respectively, and his Ph.D. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from The University of Hong Kong (HKU) in 2019. He has a long-standing commitment to research at the intersection of wireless communications, artificial intelligence, and large-scale optimization, with extensive experience and innovative results in areas such as massive MIMO signal processing, learning to optimize, and the design of distributed optimization algorithms. From 2019 to 2020, he served as a Senior Research Engineer at Huawei Noah's Ark Laboratory, where he conducted research on intelligent communication algorithms and achieved breakthrough results in the intelligent design of nested polar codes, earning him the Innovation Pioneer Award from Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Currently, he holds the position of Research Scientist at the Shenzhen Research Institute of Big Data, where in recent years he has led projects in large-scale wireless resource management, large-scale network optimization, and large-scale intelligent access. He has presided over the National Natural Science Foundation of China's (NSFC's) Youth Fund, the sub-project of the National Key R&D Program, and the open project of National Key Laboratory, and has participated as the principal investigator in the joint fund project of the NSFC. His research has resulted in the publication of over 30 high-level papers in top international journals in the fields of wireless communications and signal processing, such as IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications and IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, including over 20 as the first author or corresponding author.
