Chen Chen (谌晨)

I am a research scientist at Sony AI in the Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning team lead by Lingjuan Lyu. Prior to that, I reveived my Ph.D. degree from Zhejiang University in 2022.

I am interested in trustworthy machine learning (privacy, security, etc). My current research focuses on federated learning and adversarial training.

Experience

  • Research intern in Sony AI, Japan (Sep. 2021 — Dec. 2022)
    Focused on privacy and robustness in federated learning. Lead a project that focuses on robustness (against adversarial attack) in federated learning. Specifically, the project considered federated adversarial training under the challenging non-IID setting.

  • Visiting Ph.D. in National University of Singapore, Singapore (Nov. 2019 — Nov. 2020)
    Focused on robust federated learning, which can defend against Byzantine attacks and improve performance in federated learning.

  • Software engineering intern in NetEase, China (Jun. 2016 — Jun. 2019)
    Took part in game development and developed a retargeting tool with C++ and a super-resolution tool with Python.
