Biography
I’m currently a Ph.D. student in Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (Scientific Computation Concentration) at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, under the supervision of Prof. Sen Li. My current research primarily focuses on Deep Reinforcement Learning and Intelligent Transportation.
I received my B.Eng. degree from School of Computer Science and Engineering at Sun Yat-sen University in 2024, mentored by Prof. Kai Huang (Robot RL), Prof. Ning Liu and Prof. Chengying Gao (Music AI). I was also a visiting student in Shenzhen Research Institute of Big Data at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) from 2023 to 2024, under the guidance of Prof. Guangxu Zhu (Deep Wireless Sensing).
Aside from academics, I’m also the vocal and guitar of Tokamak Disruption, NEWS (personal band) and Rights of Lethe (dissolved). If you are interested in collaborating with me (whether in academia or music), please feel free to reach out!

In recent years, Wi-Fi sensing has garnered significant attention due to its numerous benefits, such as privacy protection, low cost, and penetration ability. Extensive research has been conducted in this field, focusing on areas such as gesture recognition, people identification, and fall detection. However, many data-driven methods encounter challenges related to domain shift, where the model fails to perform well in environments different from the training data. One major factor contributing to this issue is the limited availability of Wi-Fi sensing datasets, which makes models learn excessive irrelevant information and over-fit to the training set. Unfortunately, collecting large-scale Wi-Fi sensing datasets across diverse scenarios is a challenging task. To address this problem, we propose CrossFi, a siamese network-based approach that excels in both in-domain scenario and cross-domain scenario, including few-shot, zero-shot scenarios, and even works in few-shot new-class scenario where testing set contains new categories. The core component of CrossFi is a sample-similarity calculation network called CSi-Net, which improves the structure of the siamese network by using an attention mechanism to capture similarity information, instead of simply calculating the distance or cosine similarity. Based on it, we develop an extra Weight-Net that can generate a template for each class, so that our CrossFi can work in different scenarios. Experimental results demonstrate that our CrossFi achieves state-of-the-art performance across various scenarios. In gesture recognition task, our CrossFi achieves an accuracy of 98.17% in in-domain scenario, 91.72% in one-shot cross-domain scenario, 64.81% in zero-shot cross-domain scenario, and 84.75% in one-shot new-class scenario. The code for our model is publicly available at https://github.com/RS2002/CrossFi.
