Joey Tianyi Zhou (周天異)
I am acting Deputy Director, Principal Scientist II, and Investigator with the A*STAR Centre for Frontier AI Research (CFAR), Singapore. In CFAR, I am leading ZHOU Group focusing on fundamental AI research. Concurrently, I am holding a joint appointment as the Principal Scientist in the Centre for Advanced Technologies in Online Safety (CATOS).
In CATOS, I lead the "attack team" focused on generating Deepfake and AIGC Videos to fool human users and machine detectors (Please see some demos here). I am also an adjunct faculty member at the National University of Singapore (NUS).
I obtained my Ph.D. from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), SG, in 2015. I was a senior research engineer at Sony US Research Center, San Jose, USA.
My research focus is on how to enhance Machine Learning Efficiency and Robustness. An ideal machine learning model shall : (1) be resource-efficient for both inference and training, including computational-efficient and data-efficient; (2)be safe to various perturbations, distribution shifts, and adversarial attacks.
