Yuxin Cao

I am a Ph.D student at the School of Computing, National University of Singapore (NUS), supervised by Prof. Jin-Song Dong. Previously, I received my M.Eng degree from Tsinghua University and my B.Eng degree from Hohai University. I was a research intern at Ping An Technology, working on the robustness of face anti-spoofing, and an intern developer for MindSpore at Huawei. My research lies in the security and safety of multimodal AI systems. My core focus is video security, particularly the safety and robustness of video large language models. More broadly, I study how perception and multimodal models can fail or be attacked across temporal and visual data, spanning adversarial machine learning, the safety of large multimodal and audio-language models, and trustworthy AI. Earlier in my research career, I worked on wireless sensor networks.
