This is Feng Yu, a PhD student in computer science at the University of Exeter, under the supervision of Prof. Jia Hu and Prof. Geyong Min. My research interests are mainly federated learning (FL), continual learning (CL), foundation models (FMs) and efficient artificial intelligence (Efficient AI).
My research is supported by China Scholarship Council and University of Exeter Scholarships.
Currently, I am interested in variety of issues in federated learning and continual learning such as
Exploring and leveraging large-scale heterogeneous data thoroughly;
Advancing continual learning in the context of resource-constrained FL settings;
Developing lightweight and efficient techniques for FMs tailored to Edge AI applications.
My previous research works cover federated learning, deep reinforcement learning, blokchain, generative adversarial network, differential privacy and privacy protection.
I am open to discussing research ideas and seeking academic collaborations. Drop me email if interested!
