Research Experience
During Ph.D., research intern at Amazon AWS AI lab, hosted by Zhiqi Bu and Zha Sheng in 2023; research intern at Microsoft Research Asia, hosted by Fangzhao Wu and Xing Xie in 2021-2022; currently a postdoctoral fellow in Assured Information Management and Sharing (AIMS) at the Computer Science Department of Emory University.
Education
Received a Bachelor’s degree from China University of Petroleum in June 2018; Ph.D. student at the School of Information, Renmin University of China from September 2018 to June 2023, supervised by Prof. Hong Chen; Postdoctoral fellow at Emory University, Computer Science Department since August 2023, supervised by Prof. Li Xiong.
Background
Research interests include advancing privacy enhancement techniques (PETs) to create machine learning systems that are not only theoretically privacy-preserving but also practically viable with better utility, efficiency, and inclusiveness. Broadly interested in trustworthy AI.
