Yongli Xiang
Ph.D. Student @ University of Sydney
Hi, I am a first-year Ph.D. student at the University of Sydney, supervised by Prof. Tongliang Liu. I obtained my M.Sc. degree from USYD in 2025, also supervised by Prof. Liu. Before turning to academia, I worked as a Product Manager in Ads at Tencent. My research focuses on Generative AI Safety and Intellectual Property (IP) Protection for AI models, aiming to make advanced AI systems safer in what they generate and more controllable in how they generalize.
