Hello! I’m Xuan Liu, a senior-year Electronic and Information Engineering undergraduate at Hong Kong Polytechnic University. I’m a highly self-motivated researcher and innovator with a robust ability in execution and leadership.

My research interests lie in Trustworthy & Cognitive AI, Privacy, Large-Scale Models, and Attack & Defense Algorithms. I’m honored to be supervised by Prof. Song Guo, at HKUST (Hong Kong) during my undergraduate period. Also, I’m thankful for the mentorship by Prof. Quanyan Zhu, at NYU (New York) on interdisciplinary research on Multi-Agent LLM system for social science during Spring 2024. In the summer, I was on my Research Internship with Prof. Xiaoxiao Li, at UBC (Vancouver) on building the distributed training system for Large-Scale Models.

In addition to academic pursuits, I’m the founder of BreathingCORE, an eco-friendly IoTs technology startup in Hong Kong. I am also an inventor with patents in sustainable energy & negative carbon-related technologies.

For more details about me, please reach out at xuan18.liu@connect.polyu.hk. I am applying for the Fall 2025 PhD program in EECS OR Cognitive-related fields! I can’t wait to contribute innovative ideas and productive work ethics to your team！
