About Me

I am a fourth-year Ph.D student at School of Computer Science & Engineering, Nanyang Technological University. Currently I am working closely with Prof. Bihan Wen. Prior to that, I obtained my Becholer degree from Wuhan University and worked with Prof. Hong Huang in 2018.

My current research interests lie in Adversarial Machine Learning, Image Forensics, Security and Privacy.

Please feel free to contact me for potential internships and collaborations!
