Hi, I am Xinyue, and I go by Vera. I am a Ph.D. student at CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security, co-advised by Michael Backes and Yang Zhang. My research interests lie in Trustworthy Machine Learning. Currently, I focus on studying the security, privacy, and safety of generative AIs through data-driven measurement, and on developing innovative solutions to address these challenges. My research has impacted the development of mainstream LLM models like ChatGPT and has been featured in major media outlets such as New Scientist, Deutschlandfunk Nova, TheCyberExpress, The Decoder, MAIEI, and more.
Previously, I was an Algorithm Engineer at Alibaba. I obtained my bachelor degree from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). I am also a sci-fiction writer and have published 40+ novels and popular-science articles on Science Fiction World, Exploration Discovery, and so on.
