Welcome, it’s a pleasure to connect with you! I’m Bingcong Li, a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zurich collaborating with Prof. Niao He and the ODI group. Prior to this, I received doctoral degree from the University of Minnesota under the supervision of Prof. Georgios B. Giannakis, and then I gained industry experience, dedicating a year to LLMs.

My research leverages optimization to further enhance the excitement surrounding deep learning. My primary focus is on elevating the generalization capabilities of models and advancing them towards greater robustness and trustworthiness.
