Recently, the IEEE Hyper-Intelligence Technical Committee (IEEE HITC) announced the recipients of the IEEE HITC 2025 Young Scientist Award. Chen Miaojiang, a faculty member of the School of Computer, Electronics, and Information at Guangxi University (GXU), was honored for his outstanding contributions to hyper-intelligence in edge collaborative computing. This marks the first time a young scholar from GXU has received the award.

Established by IEEE HITC, the award recognizes early-career scientists who have earned their doctoral degrees within the past five years and demonstrated notable academic contributions and strong long-term potential. The 2025 selection process was highly competitive, attracting outstanding candidates worldwide. Following a rigorous three-month review and evaluation process, five young scientists were selected for their significant contributions to hyper-intelligence in computer science.

Chen is Associate Director of the Department of Computer Science and Technology at GXU. His research focuses on intelligent edge networks, with particular emphasis on bridging the gap between advanced artificial intelligence technologies—such as large-scale models and autonomous agents—and complex, dynamic, and resource-constrained edge environments. His work covers the integration of autonomous agents with edge networks, lightweight deployment of large models at the edge, and privacy protection in intelligent edge systems.

Over the past five years, Chen has led or participated in six national- and provincial-level research projects and published more than 30 papers in leading journals and conferences, including IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing, AAAI, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, and IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering. Seven of his publications are ESI highly cited papers. He has also received a Best Paper Award at an international conference and holds five invention patents.

In addition, Chen serves as a guest editor for four SCI journals and regularly acts as a reviewer for more than 30 international journals and conferences, including ICML, AAAI, ACM MM, ACM WWW, IEEE Transactions on Computers, and IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems. He actively mentors students, guiding undergraduates to publish SCI papers as first authors and to achieve national- and provincial-level awards in major academic competitions.
