Lingao XIAO 肖凌奥

pronounced as " ling-ow SHEE-yow"

As a first-year MPhil student at the National University of Singapore (NUS), I have the privilege of being co-advised by Dr. Yang He (Research Scientist @ CFAR, A*STAR), and Prof. Xinchao Wang (Presidential Young Professor @ xML Lab, NUS). I obtained my Bachelor degree in Computer Engineering from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore.

My research interests focus on Efficient Deep Learning and Data-Centric AI. I am actively seeking PhD opportunities for the January/August 2026 intake.
