About me

I am a doctoral student in the research group of Prof. Wressnegger. I finished my B.Sc at Harbin Institute of Technology in China in 2015. After that I did my M.Sc in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. My studies focused on signal processing, especially the interaction of machine learning and image analysis.

My research is concentrated on the intersection of machine learning and IT-Security problem. Now I am working on confidentiality and privacy attacks and defenses for machine learning models, including model stealing and membership inference attacks. Moreover, I am also super interested in how explainability can assist analysis and securing of machine learning methods.
