Yu Jin  (金宇)

I am a PhD student in the Department of Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University , supervised by Prof. Shuwen Deng , majoring in Electronic Science and Technology.

My research interests focus on Hardware Architecture Security (Especially Microarchitecture Security). I developed lots of speculative execution and side-channel attacks on x86-64/ARM/RISC-V chips. I am familiar with modern microarchitecture and will continue to learn and research in this field. My research objective is to build a secure and efficient processor architecture , which is secure from hardware to software.

I was engaged in Machine learning years ago, such as interning in Megvii Research and building some projects (infrastructure for ML/CV), these experiences help me a lot in my current research for side-channel information analysis and the get motivation of research.

I finished my graduate study and got a M.Phil. degree at BUPT in the summer of 2025, supervised by Prof. Chunlu Wang and Prof. Pengfei Qiu.

In my last year of undergraduate, I was a research intern at Megvii Research, advised by Dr. Su Wang and managed by Mr. Xinyu Zhou. Before that, I finished my graduation internship at Alibaba Group. And I completed my B.S. in Computer Science at Wuhan University of Technology.
