Hi, this is Zihao Zhu (朱梓豪). I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in Data Science at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, under the supervision of Prof. Baoyuan Wu. During my Ph.D., I have been closely collaborating with Prof. Siwei Lyu at the University at Buffalo, SUNY. Previously, I received my Master’s degree from the Institute of Information Engineering at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2021, and my Bachelor’s degree from China University of Mining and Technology in 2018.
My research focuses on Trustworthy AI, encompassing the safety and reliability of AI systems across multiple dimensions. Specifically, my work covers LLM safety and alignment, reasoning model robustness, embodied AI agent safety, data governance, and adversarial and backdoor attack/defense.
I am currently on the job market and seeking full-time opportunities in academia or industry. I would be delighted to connect if you have relevant openings or suggestions.
