Ph.D. student working on multimedia forensics and AI-generated media analysis.

I am a second-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science and Engineering at the University at Buffalo, advised by Prof. Siwei Lyu. My research focuses on AI-generated and manipulated media across images, videos, and audio, with an emphasis on multimedia forensics, interpretable detection, and real-world case analysis. Before my Ph.D., I earned my BA/MS in Econometrics and Quantitative Economics from the University at Buffalo.
