Yijun Yang
I am a third-year Ph.D. student of CUhk REliable Laboratory (CURE), in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Qiang Xu. Our lab is focused on AI security and AI robustness-related tasks. Before that, I got my M. Phil of EE from Tsinghua University in 2019. My current research interests span the fields of AI security and Diffusion models, including Robust Stable Diffusion against Adversarial Attacks and Imperceptible Adversarial Text-to-Image Generation with Natural Prompts.
