My research is in computer security and privacy. More specifically, I am interested in designing inference attacks to quantify information leakage of a system about its sensitive inputs. I also design privacy-preserving mechanisms to mitigate such inference attacks. My current focus is on machine learning and data privacy.
➙ Two open positions for PhD students. Candidates need to get admission from the doctoral program. International students can also apply for the SINGA award (next deadline: 1 Jan 2018).
➙ Multiple open positions for interns and research assistants.
If you are interested, please send me your CV along with a concise description of your research interests.
