I’m Fan (Vincent) Mo, currently a Senior Research Engineer at Trustworthy AI - Shield Lab - Huawei at Shenzhen. Before this, I have worked/visited in Nokia Bell Labs - Cambridge and Arm Research - Security and Systems at Cambridge, and Telefónica Research at Spain.
I finished my PhD in Systems and Algorithms Laboratory (SysAL) at Imperial College London, supervised by Prof. Hamed Haddadi. I have a Master of Science in Management and a Bachelor of Industrial Engineering (both with rank 1 and outstanding thesis awards) in China, supervised by Prof. Jia Zhou, working at Human-computer Interaction Lab.
My current research focuses on Data Privacy and Trustworthiness in Machine Learning at the Edge, helping users train their machine learning models without leakage of their private information, leveraging techniques such as Trusted Execution Environments. My previous research focuses on human behavior on wearable/mobile devices and social network sites. I have many experiences in User Study, Usability Evaluation and Test, UX/UI design, Prototype Develop and Evaluation, etc. I enjoy working in interdisciplinary fields and love ‘‘beautiful’’ things in both science and humanities.
