Hi, I’m Sheng Liu (刘晟)
I am a PhD student in Networked Systems Security (NSS) Group at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden, supervised by Prof. Panos Papadimitratos. My KTH profile is here. I am also affiliated with WASP, i.e., Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program.
I received my master’s degree and my B.Eng. degree from the School of Intelligent Systems Engineering, Sun Yat-sen University, China, in 2024 and 2021, respectively.
I’m always delighted to collaborate, discuss, chat, and learn from different minds! So please feel free to contact me via email (shengliu@kth.se), WeChat (nobody-910), or any other convenient means of communication!
My current research interests focus on the intersection between:
- federated learning
- autonomous driving
- security and privacy
