About
I am a third-year Ph.D. candidate at Australian National University and CSIRO’s Data61, supervised by Zhenchang Xing. I’m also co-supervised by Sherry Xu and Mark Staples. I was a visiting PhD student of Prof. David Lo in Singapore Management University.
I earned Master of Machine Learning and Computer Vision at Australian National University, advised by Zhenchang Xing and Hongdong Li. Before my graduate education, I earned the Bachelor of Advanced Computing (Honours) at Australian National University, advised by Dongwoo Kim, and the Bachelor of Computer Science and Technology at Shandong University (Weihai).
My current research interests include Usable Privacy and Security, Software Privacy Analysis, Privacy Policy Compliance Analysis, Responsible AI, and Software Engineering.
