About

M.Tech student in Computer Science and Engineering at Delhi Technological University working across adversarial machine learning, backdoor and data-poisoning defense, robust network-intrusion detection and Android malware analysis. His public record includes four IEEE conference papers and a published Indian patent application for identifying and correcting poisoned training samples in deep neural networks.

Research focus · Adversarial Machine Learning, Backdoor and Data-Poisoning Defense, Network Intrusion Detection, Android Malware Analysis

Key Projects

  • ShortcutProbe research

    the published study investigates inference-time backdoor-sample detection through internal stability analysis.

  • Multi-Signal Backdoor Defense research

    the published framework combines model signals to detect poisoned samples and correct their labels.

  • Protocol-Aware Robustness Evaluation research

    the published study evaluates deep-learning network intrusion-detection systems while preserving protocol semantics.

  • Android Malware Characterization research

    the published study classifies Android malware using high-level behavioral features.
