Networked Computing and ML Lab.
Critical Thinking for Creativity
NXC Lab aims at innovating the future of networked computing and learning with hyper-connectivity, which we believe, would extend the capability of power-limited mobile platforms limitlessly.
We envision and aim at realizing the future of networked computing and learning through working on broad research topics such as ML/RL (machine learning and reinforcement learning), Networking with ML/RL, 6G with Performance Guarantee, Computerized Network (Network-as-a-Computer), ML/RL-based image/video/data encoding, and Internet of Things, and Semantic Communications.
(You can check this Paper Reading List to understand what we are interested in.)
(You can also chech what we do with the following materials: NXC Lab Overview (2021), NXC Lab Overview (2020))
NXC Lab welcomes passionate and motivated Ph.D./M.S. students, undergraduate research interns, and Post Doc. researchers, who are interested in the topics above. If you are interested in working with us, feel free to send an email with your CV to Prof. Lee. Here is a brief overview of how you can start an undergraduate internship at NXC.
