About me

I am a Ph.D. student at the School of Computer Science, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, supervised by Prof. Haiping Huang. I obtained my B.E. degree from the same institution in 2021. My research interests include privacy-preserving machine learning, natural language processing, AI for software security, and trustworthy AI. Currently, I am a visiting student at the School of Information and Communication Technology, Griffith University, working under the supervision of Prof. Leo Zhang and Prof. Yanjun Zhang.
