I am an Associate Professor at Prof. Guan Yuan’s group, School of Computer and Science, China University of Mining and Technology (CUMT). I received my Ph.D. degree from Kyoto University, supervised by Prof. Yang Cao and Prof. Masatoshi Yoshikawa. I obtained my Master degree from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, supervised by Prof. Zhan Shi and Prof. Dan Feng. My current research focuses on Privacy and Security, Graph Analysis, LLM . Please contact me if you are interested in any form of collaboration.
