Prof. Longbo Huang is a professor at the Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences (IIIS) at Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. He received his Ph.D. in EE from the University of Southern California, and then worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the EECS dept. at University of California at Berkeley before joining IIIS. Prof. Huang’s research focuses on decision intelligence (AI for Decisions), including deep reinforcement learning, online learning and reinforcement learning, learning-augmented network optimization, distributed optimization and machine learning.

Prof. Huang has held visiting positions at the LIDS lab at MIT, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Bell-labs France, and Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA). He was a visiting scientist at the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing at UC Berkeley in Fall 2016. Prof. Huang serves/served on 70+ TPCs and 10+ organizing committees for ACM/AI/IEEE conferences, including the General Chair for ACM Sigmetrics 2021, the TPC co-chair for IEEE WiOpt 2024, ITC 2022, IEEE WiOpt 2020 and NetEcon 2020. Prof. Huang serves/served on the editorial board for IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications Special Issue on Human-in-the-loop Mobile Network (Lead guest editor 2016), IEEE Transactions on Communications (TCOM 2017-2020), ACM Transactions on Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Computing Systems (ToMPECS 2017-present), IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking (ToN 2019-present), Elsevier Performance Evaluation (PEVA 2022-present) and IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (TPAMI 2023-present). He is an ACM Distinguished Member, CCF Distinguished Member, IEEE Senior Member, an ACM Distinguished Speaker and an IEEE ComSoc Distinguished Lecturer.

Prof. Huang received 9 best paper nomination/premier paper recognitions at top-tier conferences, including ICLR 2023 (2 Spotlight), UAI 2023 (Spotlight), NeurIPS 2022 (Spotlight), NeurIPS 2021 (Oral presentation), AAMAS 2020 (Selected for fast-track publication at JAAMAS), IEEE INFOCOM 2018 (Invited to fast-track review at IEEE TNSE), ACM e-Energy 2016 (Best paper runner-up) and ACM MobiHoc 2014 (Best paper candidate). Prof. Huang received the Outstanding Teaching Award from Tsinghua university in 2014. He received the Google Research Award and the Microsoft Research Asia Collaborative Research Award in 2014, and was selected into the MSRA StarTrack Program in 2015. Prof. Huang won the ACM SIGMETRICS Rising Star Research Award in 2018.
