About Me
Hello! I am Yichen CHEN, a Master of Computing student with Infocomm Security Specialisation at the National University of Singapore. I am also currently working as an Intern Researcher at the Institute of Data Science (IDS) under the guidance of Professor See-Kiong Ng and Researcher Renyang Liu. Before joining NUS, I worked as a data security engineer for two years in the Digitalization Department of China Mobile Communications Group in Beijing.
My research primarily focuses on the intersection of Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence. I am particularly interested in how Large Language Models (LLMs) can be utilized for offensive security tasks, as well as the privacy risks associated with distributed learning frameworks.
