Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies next-generation wireless communications and IoT using AI and quantum technologies.

AboutAbout the lab
Combining AI, quantum, and IoT to study next-generation wireless communications.
The Li Lab studies machine learning and optical computing for next-generation wireless communications, as well as applications of AI and quantum computing.
The lab was established on April 1, 2022, and its first cohort of students was assigned to it in fiscal year 2023.
Its main research targets are IoT and Beyond 5G/6G systems based on AI and quantum technologies.
The lab is looking for students who pursue their research on their own initiative.
