About me

I graduated from Hanyang University, Department of Mathematics and am pursuing a Ph.D. degree in applied mathematics at the same university. From July 2018, I’m a member of Cryptology & Algorithm Lab and am advised by Professor Jae Hong Seo. From January 2023, I’m ARAP scholar at A*STAR and am advised by Khin Mi Mi Aung and Tan Yong Kiam. My main research interests include secure AI, deep-learning algorithm, and cryptography.
