Feng Liu is an Assistant Professor at the Decision Systems and e-Service Intelligence (DeSI) Lab within the Australian Artificial Intelligence Institute (AAII) at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS). He also serves as a Visiting Scientist at RIKEN-AIP, Japan. His academic journey includes a PhD in Computer Science from UTS (2020), an MSc in Probability and Statistics from Lanzhou University (2015), and a BSc in Mathematics from the same institution (2013).
His educational background includes:
- Ph.D. (2020), Computer Science, University of Technology Sydney, Australia
- M.Sc. (2015), Probability and Statistics, Lanzhou University, China
- B.Sc. (2013), Mathematics, Lanzhou University, China
Feng Liu's research centers on developing trustworthy intelligent systems through hypothesis testing and reliable knowledge transfer across domains. His work spans two-sample testing for distribution comparison, transfer learning for knowledge adaptation across domains, and defending against adversarial attacks to improve model robustness. His approach combines theoretical foundations with practical applications, particularly in domain adaptation with interval-valued data and secure multi-source learning.
His recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on trustworthy machine learning, with significant contributions to interval-valued data processing, novel class discovery under unreliable sampling conditions, and privacy-preserving domain adaptation. His work bridges theoretical machine learning with practical applications in computer vision, bioinformatics, and recommender systems, showing a consistent pattern of addressing fundamental challenges in trustworthy AI.
Among his notable recognitions are:
- Outstanding Reviewer Award of ICLR (2021)
- AAII Best Student Paper Award (2020)
- Best Student Paper Award from IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (2019)
- UTS-FEIT HDR Research Excellence Award (2019)
- Publons Peer Review Awards - Top 1% reviewers in Computer Science (2019, 2018)
Dr. Liu has actively contributed to the academic community through supervision and service. He has helped supervise four students who collectively produced eight academic papers, three of which were published in CORE Tier A* venues. His service includes program committee roles for major conferences including NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, and AAAI, as well as reviewing for prestigious journals like IEEE-TPAMI and IEEE-TNNLS. His research has been supported by various grants, including the Australian Laureate postdoctoral fellowship.
As part of the AAII at UTS, Dr. Liu contributes to a vibrant research environment focused on advancing artificial intelligence through interdisciplinary collaboration. His work in the Decision Systems and e-Service Intelligence Lab addresses real-world challenges in trustworthy machine learning, with applications spanning healthcare, robotics, and secure information systems.
