I am Associate Professor of Information Sciences and Technology at Penn State and a part-time research scientist at Meta. I conduct research at the intersection of machine learning, privacy, and security. I direct the Algorithmic Learning, Privacy, and Security (ALPS) Lab. My ongoing work focuses on making AI systems practically useful via providing
Security Assurance – resilient against malicious manipulations
Privacy Preservation – respectful for individual privacy
Decision-Making Transparency – interpretable to human perception
I joined Penn State in Fall 2019. Prior to that I was an assistant professor at Lehigh. I received my doctoral degree from Georgia Tech and finished my undergrad study at Zhejiang University (China).
