About Me
I am an tenured track assistant professor at the department of computer science at New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). Before joining NJIT, I received my Ph.D. degree from Rutgers University, where I was advised by Dr. Yingying Chen. My research interests span Applied Machine Learning, Security and Privacy for Mobile Systems, and Robust and Trustworthy ML/AI. My research work has been published at top-tier security, mobile sensing, and ML/AI venues (e.g., IEEE S&P, ACM CCS, ACSAC, ACM MobiCom, ACM MobiSys, ACM SenSys, ACM MobiHoc, ACM UbiComp, ICCV, AAAI, ECCV).
