Hi there. I’m Jiarui Y. Li, a PhD student in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, supervised by Prof. Morley Mao. My research aims to build trustworthy and robust AI system in general. My research experience mainly involves distributed learning, machine learning systems, and sensing systems, with a special focus on the security aspect. I am passionate about exploring how machine learning can enhance real-world engineering applications in different domains.
I hold an MSc degree in Artificial Intelligence Engineering - Information Security from the Information Networking Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, where I specialized in secure distributed machine learning. I worked closely with Prof. Carlee Joe-Wong and Prof. Gauri Joshi.
Prior to this, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen in 2022, advised by Prof. Yeh-Ching Chung. I also interned at Tencent AI Lab for one year, mentored by Dr. Wenxiang Jiao.
🏀 I love sports, especially basketball :)
🎹 Piano learner
