About
This is a more detailed introduction, I guess?
I’m Yiwei (yee-way) Fu (foo), a masters student in machine learning at Carnegie Mellon University. Previously I was an undergraduate student at University of Michigan majoring in Honors Mathematics and Computer Science.
My research interest is in the privacy, safety, and security of machine learning, especially their connections with each other. I’m broadly interested in differential privacy, safety and alignment of generative models, and efficient and secure machine learning systems.
However, I do love exploring a lot of fields. I am also interested in ML’s applications in science/social science research. I did Chemistry Olympiad during high school (although without any remarkable achievements), and am interested in science disciplines in general besides math and CS (which I major in). Pure theoretical stuff are absolutely cool, but I like applied things just as much.
(credit to xkcd, I did some small modification)
Outside of study, I like cooking, road-tripping, watching and playing sports, and photography. I also play chess and Go. Oh, here is my photography account.
