Ph.D., Center for Intelligent Machines, McGill University, Montreal, Canada
My research focuses on AI safety, specifically, to identify the potential risks hidden in powerful AI systems and develop resilient solutions for practical intelligent applications. Completed research projects are:
1. Potential Risks in LLMs for Time Series Forecasting
- Adversarial attacks against LLM in time series forecasting. link
[AISTATS’25] - Temporally sparse attacks against LLM in time series forecasting. link
[ICLR’25 BuildingTrust]
2. Resilient Intelligent Transportion System (ITS)
- Accumulated and autocorrelated error adjustment for more accurate ITS. link
[TITS’22] [INFFUS’25] - Adversarial danger identification for more robust ITS. link
[TNNLS’23]
Background
I graduated with my Ph.D. in Intelligient Transporation System (ITS) from McGill University, Canada, co-supervised by Prof. Lijun Sun and Prof. Luis Miranda-Moreno. Prior to my doctorate, I earned two Master of Science (MSc) degrees in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT), China, and Clarkson University, USA. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from BIT, China.
