I am a PhD student funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Networks (MSCA-DN) fellowship, working in the Department of Mathematics and Applications “R. Caccioppoli” at the University of Naples Federico II under the supervision of Prof.Francesco Piccialli. Prior to this, I received my master’s degree from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics under the supervision of Prof.Xiaoyang Tan.

My research interest includes Trustworthy AI, Federated Learning, and Computer Vision.
