About Me

Here is Aolin Ding. I am an AI Research Scientist at Accenture, Center for Advanced AI. I obtained my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Rutgers University in 2022 under the guidance of Prof. Saman Zonouz – who is now at Georgia Tech. I previously worked as a Research Intern at Accenture and MERL for over a year. Prior to my Ph.D., I had a multicultural undergraduate study, spending my four-year bachelor life across three universities: UESTC, I-Shou, and Rutgers. I received my B.E. degree in Electrical Engineering from UESTC in 2015.

Research Interests

  • At Accenture, my research focuses on building secure, responsible and scalable multi-agent systems powered by LLMs. I specialize in agentic testing, evaluation, assessment and tooling of foundation model-based agents, with focus areas of safety, compliance, privacy, and security.

  • In parallel, I actively advance my PhD research in the security of cyber-physical systems, industrial IoT, and embedded systems. In these domains, I leverage a combination of software analysis, physics-based monitoring, and machine learning approaches to develop innovative security solutions.

I have a solid record of publications and professional services at leading AI and security conferences and journals. Click here for my complete CV.
